Abstract

 It is known that the leg length discrepancy changes the distribution of the body weight in the lower extremities. This produces clinical consequences which vary depending on the severity of the discrepancy. The mathematical analysis described in this article will allow us to predict with scientific precision the real postural damage produced. We will therefore be able to take the physical therapy steps measures necessary to reverse the clinical consequences.
