Limb lengthening and deformity correction of congenital and acquired deformities in children using the Taylor Spatial Frame
Background and purpose - Hexapod ring fixators such as the Taylor Spatial Frame (TSF) have shown good outcomes. However, there have only been a few studies comparing the use of TSF with various etiologies of the deformity. We compared the use of TSF in congenital and acquired deformities in children. Patients and methods - We reviewed 213 lower extremity reconstructive procedures with the TSF i...
متن کاملMultiplanar Deformities Correction Using Taylor Spatial Frame in Skeletally Immature Patients
BACKGROUND Taylor Spatial Frame (TSF) is a modern circular external fixator that, using a virtual hinge, is able to correct six axis deformities simultaneously. Despite the growing popularity of this method, few reports exist about its use in children and adolescents. To evaluate the effectiveness of TSF in correcting multiplanar deformities in patients with open physis, we reviewed the results...
متن کاملDoes the Taylor Spatial Frame accurately correct tibial deformities?
BACKGROUND Optimal leg alignment is the goal of tibial osteotomy. The Taylor Spatial Frame (TSF) and the Ilizarov method enable gradual realignment of angulation and translation in the coronal, sagittal, and axial planes, therefore, the term six-axis correction. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We asked whether this approach would allow precise correction of tibial deformities. METHODS We retrospectively...
متن کاملTreatment of post-traumatic deformities
Surgeons are experts at making the most of conventional 2D image data to prepare for their complex procedures. However, even the best planners can struggle with limited information that is available in 2D images and with the inability to try out multiple approaches before entering the OR. Surgeons using 2D images to diagnose and treat complex reconstructive bone procedures know how frustrating ...
متن کاملangular deformities of the lower limb in children
angular deformities of the lower limbs are common during childhood. in most cases this represents a variation in the normal growth pattern and is an entirely benign condition. presence of symmetrical deformities and absence of symptoms, joint stiffness, systemic disorders or syndromes indicates a benign condition with excellent long-term outcome. in contrast, deformities which are asymmetrical ...
