"Subtypes"

Line 9:1 · "Subtypes" is not a recognised heading for this article type.
There Is
suggestion

"There are infantile, juvenile and adolescent forms. The infantile type is 5x more frequent than the others and is seen particularly in early walkers. It appears to be the result of abnormal compressive forces inhibiting growth at the medial growth plate and not from osteonecrosis."

Line 10:4 · Don't start a sentence with 'There are'.

"There is no recognised inheritance pattern."

Line 15:4 · Don't start a sentence with 'There is'.
Oxford Comma
suggestion

"There are infantile, juvenile and adolescent forms. The infantile type is 5x more frequent than the others and is seen particularly in early walkers. It appears to be the result of abnormal compressive forces inhibiting growth at the medial growth plate and not from osteonecrosis."

Line 10:14 · Use the Oxford comma in 'infantile, juvenile and adolescent'.

"The tibial shaft is in the varus position, and the epiphysis is wedge-shaped, fragmented or can appear absent. The adjacent metaphysis is also depressed and has a beak-like protuberance of rarified bone orientated medially. This causes the metaphyseal-diaphyseal angle of Drennan to increase (typically more than 11º). The lateral cortical wall of the upper tibial metaphysis remains notably straight."

Line 17:74 · Use the Oxford comma in 'shaped, fragmented or can'.
