position, and mechanical forces. Abnormal FNA sometimes can be associated
with many clinical problems ranging from harmless intoeing gait in the early childhood,
to disabling osteoarthritis of the hip and the knee in the adults.
In most cases is associated with minor functional problems in children during growth,
but cause a concern in parents for children future. The child must be examined carefully
and an accurate diagnosis must be established. The most important part of care is observation
