Epiphysiodesis for limb length discrepancy: a comparison of two methods
A retrospective review of 42 patients from 1999 to 2008 with at least 1-year follow-up was performed. 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 کاملBone lengthening for correction of limb length discrepancy in a patient with Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome: a case report.
Klippel-Trenanay Syndrome (KTS) consists of a triad of cutaneous haemangioma, bone and soft tissue hypertrophy and venous varicosities (4). The aetiology of this syndrome is unknown but some authors have suggested that it results from a mesodermal abnormality that occurs during fetal development (5). Bone hypertrophy usually results in limb length discrepancy, with the affected leg being the lo...
متن کاملLengthening of replanted or revascularized lower limbs: is length discrepancy a contraindication for limb salvage?
Some replantation cases require substantial bone shortening for primary closure. Leg-length discrepancy can be restored by lengthening of the replanted or revascularized extremities. Between 1991 and 2000, four patients with four total and two subtotal below-knee amputations had replantation or revascularization for their severely damaged extremities. All of them had extensive debridement, vasc...
متن کاملImprovement in gait parameters after lengthening for the treatment of limb-length discrepancy.
BACKGROUND Patients who have limb-length discrepancy demonstrate an altered gait pattern or a limp. The purpose of this prospective study was to compare the objective gait parameters for the shorter lower limb with those for the longer lower limb before and after lengthening and to compare these data with those for a group of twenty subjects who had no limb-length discrepancy. METHODS Eightee...
متن کاملTemporary epiphyseodesis for limb-length discrepancy
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE For the treatment of leg-length discrepancies (LLDs) of between 2 and 5 cm in adolescent patients, several epiphyseodesis options exist and various complications have been reported. We reviewed the 8- to 15-year outcome after temporary epiphyseodesis in patients with LLD. PATIENTS AND METHODS 34 children with LLD of up to 5 cm were included in the study. Mean age at epi...
