What is cubitus valgus?

Cubitus valgus is a deformity in which the forearm is angled out away from the body when

the arm is fully extended. When it affects both arms, it’s known as cubitus valgus bilateral.

When your palm is facing upward and your arm is extended, you may have cubitus valgus

if your carrying angle, or the degree to which your arm is angling away from your body,

exceeds 15 degrees.

However, it’s possible to be diagnosed with cubitus valgus with a carrying angle anywhere

between 3 and 29 degrees. The angle is often more pronounced in women.

This condition doesn’t always need to be treated, but in some people, it can compress the

nerves in the arm, causing complications.

What causes a person to develop cubitus valgus?

There are two possible causes for cubitus valgus: a congenital condition or a fracture.

The two congenital conditions that commonly cause cubitus valgus are Turner syndrome and

Noonan syndrome.

Turner syndrome is a chromosomal disorder in which a female is born with only one X chromosome.

People with Turner syndrome experience a number of other symptoms, including short stature and

delayed puberty. Treatment usually involves hormone replacement therapy.

Noonan syndrome is another genetic disorder that results in delayed development. It’s

usually caused by a genetic mutation, but sometimes doctors aren’t sure why it develops.

While there’s no cure for Noonan syndrome, there are a number of treatments that can help

minimize its effects.
