Distal femoral osteotomy using the LCP pediatric condylar 90-degree plate in patients with neuromuscular disorders.
BACKGROUND In patients with cerebral palsy and other neuromuscular disorders, correction of a fixed knee flexion deformity is thought to be crucial for the improvement of gait. The distal femoral extension osteotomy (DFO) is one method to achieve this goal. The standard implant for fixation of the 2 fragments in DFO is the conventional AO blade plate. The aim of this study was to report the out...
متن کاملIs simultaneous hamstring lengthening necessary when performing distal femoral extension osteotomy and patellar tendon advancement?
Crouch gait is common in individuals with cerebral palsy. Recently published data has shown that distal femoral extension osteotomy with patellar tendon advancement (DFEO/PTA) is an effective procedure to correct crouch gait in the presence of a knee flexion contracture and quadriceps insufficiency. Short length and slow lengthening rate (velocity) of the hamstrings are indications for hamstrin...
متن کاملComparative study of management of distal femoral fractures managed by dynamic condylar screw and distal femoral locking compression plate
Background:Distal femoral fractures are much less common than hip fractures and account for 7% of all femoral fractures. Distal femoral fractures are difficult to treat and ideal treatment of such fractures will include anatomical reduction, rigid fixation of articular surfaces and early mobilization of knee joint. Our study aims to compare the outcome of fifty distal femoral fractures which we...
متن کاملTrunk Kinematic Analysis during Gait in Cerebral Palsy Children with Crouch Gait Pattern
Background: Deficits in upper body movement have received little attention during gait in cerebral palsy (CP) children with crouch gait pattern (CGP).Objective: Purpose of this research is to describe the correlation of trunk movement with the excessive knee flexion and ankle kinematic in CP children with CGP.Methods: Gait analysis data from 57 limbs of diplegic CP children with CGP and 26 limb...
متن کاملPatellar instability treated with distal femoral osteotomy.
BACKGROUND Patellar instability can cause significant disability in both pediatric and adult patients, and it is associated with several factors including genu valgum. In this study, we describe the role of a lateral opening wedge distal femoral osteotomy (DFO) combined with lateral retinacular release in addressing genu valgum with associated patellar instability. The rationale for this approa...
