Abstract

The congenital anterolateral tibial bowing associated with polydactyly (CABTP) is an extremely rare deformity. To the best of our knowledge, only 21 cases have been documented in the English literature. Although there is a strong relationship between anterolateral bowing of the tibia, congenital pseudoarthrosis of the tibia (CPT), and neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), CATBP is a specific entity associated with a more favorable prognosis. We report a new CABTP case and our literature review on the previously reported cases of CABTP concerning its associated deformities, diagnosis, and treatment.
Key words: Tibial bowing; polydactyly; hallux.Level of Evidence: IV
