Prevalence of genu varum / valgum in Algerian children and adolescents with low vitamin D and calcium status

Abstract

The prevalence of lower extremity deformities is high in some areas of the world, often associated with low vitamin D status and low calcium intake. These bone deformities are physiological until the age of five. There is no published data on bone deformities in the lower limbs of healthy children living in North Africa.
