• Fatigue

  Early childhood can include waddling gait, fatigue with long walks, difficulty climbing stairs or running. Stature may be normal or short. In older children and adolescence there is an increased incidence of slipped femoral capital epiphysis. [mirc.luriechildrens.org]

• Coxa Vara

  The coxa vara deformity was corrected satisfactorily, and the femoral head was covered completely by the acetabulum. [healio.com]

  The proximal femur shows features of congenital coxa vara i.e., a Fairbank's triangle which is not seen in rickets. [orthopaedicsone.com]

  vara may occur; - knees: - genu valgum is common (consider early osteotomy); - abnormal normal ossification (tibial "slant sign") - flattened femoral condyles - ankles: References Early diagnosis of Multiple Epiphyseal Dysplasia. [wheelessonline.com]

  Deformities such as coxa vara and genu vara/valgum can be seen. Radiographic presentation: Bilateral and symmetrical delay of long bone epiphyseal growth centers, most severe in lower extremities. [mirc.luriechildrens.org]

  Irregular epiphyseal and physeal growth, skeletal deformities (coxa vara, genu valgum or varum), short limb dwarfism and short stubby hands and feet. Can present similar to bilateral Perthes' disease. [gait.aidi.udel.edu]

• Normal Stature

  Proximal phalanges and metacarpi were shorter in the short- stature group than in the normal- stature group, indicating that stature in MED had some relationship to the involvement of the wrist and hand. [journals.lww.com]

  While the median height is below the normal mean, most patients fall within the low normal range. This wide stature range is at odds with the expectation of a skeletal dysplasia having a major impact on stature. [jmg.bmj.com]
