Lengthening and deformity correction about the knee using a magnetic internal lengthening nail
INTRODUCTION The introduction of the internal lengthening nail (ILN) has changed the treatment of complex malalignment and shortening about the knee. Acute correction of the deformity and gradual lengthening through this osteotomy site has greatly simplified postoperative recovery. This manuscript is a review of the techniques that are currently being used in surgery. METHODS The article is b...
متن کاملPRECICE intramedullary limb lengthening system.
The PRECICE(®) Intramedullary Limb Lengthening System (Ellipse Technologies Inc., CA, USA) is a remotely controlled, magnetically driven, implantable limb lengthening intramedullary nail system. It has both CE mark and US FDA clearance for its first- (2011) and second-generation (2013) implants. It is indicated for the treatment of limb length discrepancy and short stature. It has been used wor...
متن کاملHumerus Lengthening With the PRECICE Internal Lengthening Nail.
BACKGROUND Deformity and growth arrest of the humerus in children may result as sequelae of proximal humerus fractures and unicameral bone cysts, or as complications of their treatment. As approximately 80% of the growth of the humerus arises from the proximal physis, the resultant upper limb-length discrepancy can be substantial. Benefits to lengthening the shortened arm have been previously d...
متن کاملFemoral lengthening and deformity correction using the Fitbone motorized lengthening nail
BACKGROUND This study reports our results with retrograde Fitbone insertion in patients with femoral shortening and deformity. We also present our experience regarding the benefits, complications, and factors associated with complications of the Fitbone technique. METHODS Twelve males and ten females had femoral shortening and deformities treated using the retrograde Fitbone technique between...
متن کاملFixator-assisted nailing and consecutive lengthening over an intramedullary nail for the correction of tibial deformity.
We report the results of using a combination of fixator-assisted nailing with lengthening over an intramedullary nail in patients with tibial deformity and shortening. Between 1997 and 2007, 13 tibiae in nine patients with a mean age of 25.4 years (17 to 34) were treated with a unilateral external fixator for acute correction of deformity, followed by lengthening over an intramedullary nail wit...
