The severe depression of the proximal medial tibial epiphysis is most consistent with the diagnosis of neglected infantile Blount’s disease. Blount’s disease in adolescents produces a deformity in the metaphyseal region. Septic arthritis and JRA affect both sides of the joint. Hemophilia produces a characteristic widening of the intercondylar notch.
