The type and location of epiphysiodesis, average operative time and hospital stay, complications, timing and the final limb length discrepancy (LLD) were recorded. Computer tomography scanograms and mechanical axis view with grids were done to assess LLD. Twenty-six patients underwent Canale ty...
متن کاملComparison of three surgical epiphysiodesis techniques for the treatment of lower limb length discrepancy.

متن کاملAn improved spreadsheet for calculating limb length discrepancy and epiphysiodesis timing using the multiplier method
PURPOSE The multiplier method is a technique to predict limb length discrepancy (LLD) at maturity in pediatric patients. Various tools have been developed for performing the multiplier calculations to predict LLD and timing of epiphysiodesis. These include multiplier/growth applications (apps) and a spreadsheet which have helped to facilitate LLC calculations in an efficient and easy manner. We...
