Surgical correction of coxa vara in various pathologies can be done successfully with the Hilgenreiner-epiphyseal angle corrected to ≤ 35 degrees or the neck shaft angle corrected to >110 degrees to prevent deformity recurrence. The majority of the patients reported improvement in hip function. However, a longer-term follow-up is required to determine further outcomes regarding the recurrence of the deformity.
