Modified Oblique Proximal Tibial Osteotomy for Deformity Correction of Tibia Vara (Blount Disease)
Background: In Blount’s disease, there is a complex three-dimensional deformity which typically includes varus, internal rotation, and (sometimes) procurvatum. The best way to obtain correction is with simple procedure carried out as high in the tibia as possible to promote rapid union, quick remodeling, and with minimal proximal shaft deformity. Patients and methods: 17 patients with tibia var...
متن کاملFemoral deformity in tibia vara.
BACKGROUND Previous studies have suggested that compensatory valgus deformity of the femur is common in patients with tibia vara, or Blount disease. The availability and routine use of standing long-cassette radiographs of the lower extremities to assess angular deformities has allowed quantitative evaluation of this hypothesis. METHODS The cases of all patients with tibia vara, two years of ...
متن کاملOsteotomy of the tibia for correction of complex deformity.
Twenty complex tibial deformities due to anterior poliomyelitis in 18 patients were corrected by a modified O'Donoghue osteotomy. This technique allowed correction of the deformity in three planes. This was achieved by widening the rectangular window distally to correct both rotation and valgus and by trimming the anterior edges of the step cuts to correct flexion deformity. An above-knee cast ...
متن کاملOblique tibial osteotomy revisited
PURPOSE Oblique proximal tibial osteotomy is a useful option for correcting deformity associated with Blount's disease (tibia vara). Safe, adequate correction depends on technical issues that have evolved since the original description of the procedure. METHODS Retrospective review of surgical experience. RESULTS The refinement of osteotomy plane orientation, based on the distal rather than...
متن کاملOsteotomy at the distal third of tibial tuberosity with LCP L-buttress plate for correction of tibia vara
BACKGROUND Many osteotomy methods and fixation types have been used to correct the misalignment observed in tibia vara and to achieve a more uniform distribution of weight across the knee joint. PURPOSE The aim of this study is to test the efficacy and safety of a modified closing wedge high tibial osteotomy (CWHTO) procedure for tibia vara. METHODS In this prospective study, young adults w...
