Percutaneous distraction lengthening in brachymetacarpia.
Brachymetacarpia is a condition manifesting a shortened metacarpal that is caused by early closure of the epiphyseal plate and believed to arise idiopathically. The correction for brachymetacarpia is usually for cosmetic reasons as brachymetacarpia does not impair function. The literature indicates several different approaches to lengthening digits, including single-stage lengthening and rapid ...
متن کاملtransiliac leg lengthening in poliomyelitis
the development and widespread use of a prophylactic vaccine significantly reduced the incidence of poliomyelitis. at present we more commonly encounter with poliomyelitis sequelae especially in developing countries. we evaluate the results of a modified innominate osteotomy for leg length discrepancy in poliomyelitis. instead of triangular bone graft as in salter’s innominate osteotomy , a tra...
متن کاملBenefits of Ilizarov automated bone distraction for nerves and articular cartilage in experimental leg lengthening
AIM To determine peculiarities of tissue responses to manual and automated Ilizarov bone distraction in nerves and articular cartilage. METHODS Twenty-nine dogs were divided in two experimental groups: Group M - leg lengthening with manual distraction (1 mm/d in 4 steps), Group A - automated distraction (1 mm/d in 60 steps) and intact group. Animals were euthanized at the end of distraction, ...
متن کاملLeg lengthening in Turner dwarfism.
We have reviewed 16 patients treated by leg lengthening for various forms of Turner dwarfism with regard to the long period of healing and the complications. We consider that Turner dwarfism is a suitable indication for leg lengthening because of the moderate length deficit and the morphological appearance of the patients, and have introduced an improved programme of management to deal with the...
متن کاملLeg intramuscular pressures during locomotion in humans.
To assess the usefulness of intramuscular pressure (IMP) measurement for studying muscle function during gait, IMP was recorded in the soleus and tibialis anterior muscles of 10 volunteers during treadmill walking and running by using transducer-tipped catheters. Soleus IMP exhibited single peaks during late-stance phase of walking [181 +/- 69 (SE) mmHg] and running (269 +/- 95 mmHg). Tibialis ...
