A reduction in the angle of MDA, in first patients the MDA angle before surgery was 18 degrees on the right 40 degrees on the left, after surgery MDA was 24 degrees on the right, 10 degrees on the left. The second patient MDA before surgery was 32 degrees on the right and 33 degrees on the left, after the surgery MDA was 12 degrees on the left side, for the right side hasn’t operated yet.Discussion and Conclusion: There is hope for correction on severe form of blount disease.
