title: Congenital dislocation of the knee. A report of 5 cases.
abstract: Reports on 3 infants who suffered from congenital dislocation of the knee and 2 with genu recurvatum deformity are presented. The theory that abnormal intra-uterine fetal position may cause these deformities has gained support over previous concepts, as demonstrated by the baby born by caesarean section.
