A small degree of cubitus valgus (known as the carrying angle) is acceptable and occurs in the general population. [citation needed] When present at birth, it can be an indication of Turner syndrome [1] or Noonan syndrome. It can also be acquired through fracture or other trauma. The physiological cubitus valgus varies from 3° to 29°.
The carrying angle permits the arm to be swung without contacting the hips. Women on average have smaller shoulders and wider hips than men, which tends to produce a larger carrying angle (i.e., larger deviation from a straight line than that in men). There is, however, extensive overlap in the carrying angle between individual men and women ...
