Lengthening for Congenital Short Femur
We have reviewed the results in 37 patients with unilateral congenital short femur (Pappas classes III to IX), treated by different lengthening procedures. The increase in the length of the femur varied from 15.6% to 142%, excellent or good results being obtained in 32 patients (86%). There was an average of 1.9 complications per case, most being seen earlier in the series when the Wagner techn...
متن کاملLengthening of the congenital short femur using the Ilizarov technique: a single-surgeon series.
We present a retrospective review of a single-surgeon series of 30 consecutive lengthenings in 27 patients with congenital short femur using the Ilizarov technique performed between 1994 and 2005. The mean increase in length was 5.8 cm/18.65% (3.3 to 10.4, 9.7% to 48.8%), with a mean time in the frame of 223 days (75 to 363). By changing from a distal to a proximal osteotomy for lengthening, th...
متن کاملCongenital short femur; simple femoral hypoplasia.
Defects of femoral development may take the form of complete or partial absence of the bone or a failure ofgrowth without obvious loss ofbony structure. Mouchet and Ibos (1928) and Nilsonne (1928) presented classifications of femoral defects; their observations were based primarily upon the study of radiographs and their classifications failed to emphasise how gentle may be the gradation from s...
متن کاملKnee arthritis in congenital short femur after Wagner lengthening.
Knee anomalies are common in patients with congenital short femurs who require lengthening to correct limb-length discrepancies. We retrospectively reviewed the incidence of knee arthritis and the factors influencing its occurrence after femoral lengthening using the Wagner method. Twenty-three patients with congenital short femurs treated with the Wagner method were followed up until skeletal ...
متن کاملTreatment of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia with the Ilizarov technique. Case report and review of the literature.
Congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia continues to pose one of the most difficult problems in paediatric orthopaedic surgery. The surgical procedures most used for treating congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia are intramedullary nailing associated with bone grafting, vascularized fibular graft and the Ilizarov external circular fixator. Even when union is achieved, the residual deformities i...
