Abstract
This paper draws on the work of Dror Paley et al and describes the basic principles of clinical and radiographic assessment of coronal plane lower limb deformity. It covers concepts of mechanical axis deviation and of the Centre of Rotation of Angulation (CORA) which influence the choice of corrective osteotomy shape and its location.
