Complications secondary to Osgood-Schlatter disease are rare, and there have been few reports on their treatment. Partial growth arrest of the proximal tibial physis as a result of Osgood-Schlatter disease has been infrequently described. Genu recurvatum from partial physeal arrest can cause cosmetic deformity, instability, pain, and weakness. We report a case of genu recurvatum secondary to Osgood-Schlatter disease treated successfully with proximal tibial osteotomy and distraction with a Taylor spatial frame.
