J Pediatr Orthop. 1984 Mar;4(2):243-5. doi: 10.1097/01241398-198403000-00014.

Abstract

A case of proximal tibiofibular synostosis with a 10-year follow-up is presented. The lesion was documented roentgenographically when the patient was 3 years of age and when she became symptomatic at 13 years of age after vigorous running. The symptoms were successfully treated with custom-molded shoe orthotics.
