Difference between Genu varum and Thigh

Genu varum vs. Thigh

Genu varum (also called bow-leggedness, bandiness, bandy-leg, and tibia vara), is a varus deformity marked by (outward) bowing at the knee, which means that the lower leg is angled inward (medially) in relation to the thigh's axis, giving the limb overall the appearance of an archer's bow. In human anatomy, the thigh is the area between the hip (pelvis) and the knee.
