Osteotomy 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...
متن کاملModified 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 کاملSerrated W/M osteotomy. Results using a new technique for the correction of infantile tibia vara.
The conventional osteotomies used to treat infantile tibia vara (Blount's disease) may require internal fixation and its subsequent removal. These techniques, which carry the risk of traction injury, and potential problems of stability and consolidation, do not always succeed in correcting the rotational deformity which accompanies the angular deformity. We have used a new surgical approach, th...
متن کاملEvaluation of treatment of late-onset tibia vara using gradual angulation translation high tibial osteotomy.
Late-onset tibia vara or Blount's disease is the most common cause of pathologic genu varum in children and adolescents. Treatment remains controversial. Many studies in the past have shown that an osteotomy with acute correction is the most appropriate treatment. More recently however, there has been a growing interest, especially in severe cases, in using gradual correction with the Ilizarov ...
متن کاملDistal tuberosity osteotomy in open wedge high tibial osteotomy can prevent patella infera: a new technique.
To prevent patella infera in open wedge high tibial osteotomy, a new operation technique was developed. Instead of a proximal tibial tuberosity osteotomy, a distal osteotomy was performed and the tuberosity was fixed with one screw to the tibia. Initial experience in 17 patients was evaluated and compared with results of 20 patients with open wedge high tibial osteotomy with proximal tuberosity...
