Dr. D has given multiple patients knock knees. This should not be an issue for femurs as the tibia is not involved, thus the absence of a locking screw to prevent it isn't an issue.

There are more doctors in the USA than just Paley. Please continue to do your research, this surgery is very serious.

Ok, but why is Dr. D not using a locking screw if that can prevent knock knees? a screw can't be much costly?!

That's a good question. Likely just lack of experience and skill. I don't know why else. Dr Paley describes it as a "rookie mistake". You would think something like that you learn very early on in your career...
