Two of 39 fractures united with 10 degrees varus deformity, but no corrective surgery was warranted. Limb length discrepancy more than 1.5 cm did not occur.

"Deformity" is obviously more used in a pathological sense. In your context, perhaps it would be better "varus angulation".

...capitellocondylar implants averaged 2.1 +/- 2.3 degrees more varus angulation than that of the intact elbows.

In the present series, the use of an intramedullary femoral alignment guide increased the tendency to place the femoral component in relative varus angulation (that is, in <5° of valgus).
