The two approaches to the correction of foot deformities are (1) soft tissue distraction of the deformity and (2) distraction of an osteotomy. In the former, the deformity is corrected by eliminating pre-existing contractures and by distracting acr...
متن کاملCorrection of Madelung's deformity by the Ilizarov technique.
We present our experience with correction of Madelung's deformity by the Ilizarov technique. Seven patients (eight deformities) were treated by osteotomy of the radius with subsequent lengthening and angular correction. They were reviewed at a mean of 30 months (1.5 to 5.5 years). At the time of operation their mean age was 19 years (9 to 44). At follow-up all were free from pain and supination...

In each case, arthrography revealed a joint surface considerably different from that assumed from plain radiographs, and resulted in a change in the placement of our ref...
