    Let \(h: \Omega\to \mathbb{R}^k\) be a smooth function defined on a domain \(\Omega\), \(\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n\) and \(\Sigma= \{(x,h(x))\mid x\in\Omega\}\) the corresponding graph in \(\mathbb{R}^d\); \(d= n+ k\). In the present study the authors assume that the normal bundle of \(\Sigma\) is flat and prove the interior curvature estimate \[ \sup_{\Sigma\cap \mathbb{B}_R}|A|^2\leq {C\over R^2}\tag{1} \] up to dimension \(n\leq 5\), where \(|A|\) denotes the length of the second fundamental form, \(\mathbb{B}_R\subset\mathbb{R}^d\) is a closed ball of radius \(R\) centered at some point \(p\in\Sigma\), and \(C\) is a constant depending on natural geometric data of \(\Sigma\) only.
