Southwick Osteotomy Stabilised with External Fixator
INTRODUCTION Epiphysiolysis of the femoral head is the most common accident occurring towards the end of pre-puberty and puberty growth. CASE REPORT The author describes the experience in the treatment of chronic epiphysiolysis in two patients treated by Southwick osteotomy. The site is accessed by way of a 15-cm long lateral skin incision and the trochanteric region is reached through the la...
متن کاملSubtrochanteric valgus osteotomy with monolateral external fixator in hips for patients with severe cerebral palsy.
Subtrochanteric valgus osteotomy has been used for painful hip joint dislocation in patients with severe cerebral palsy. The goal of this study was to evaluate 11 patients (17 hips) with severe cerebral palsy who had chronically dislocated and painful hips treated with subtrochanteric valgus osteotomy using a monolateral external fixator. A retrospective review was performed of 11 patients (ave...
متن کاملThe treatment of high tibial osteotomy non-union with the Ilizarov external fixator
To evaluate the results of the Ilizarov external fixator in the treatment of non-union post-high tibial osteotomy (HTO). Five non-unions, in four patients, following HTO were treated by Ilizarov fixation. Clinical outcome was assessed pre- and post-operatively by the Knee Society Clinical Rating System (KSCRS). Radiological analysis assessed bone healing pre- and post-operatively and measured p...
متن کاملAdjustable stiffness, external fixator for the rat femur osteotomy and segmental bone defect models.
The mechanical environment around the healing of broken bone is very important as it determines the way the fracture will heal. Over the past decade there has been great clinical interest in improving bone healing by altering the mechanical environment through the fixation stability around the lesion. One constraint of preclinical animal research in this area is the lack of experimental control...
متن کاملPelvic support osteotomy for unstable hips using hybrid external fixator: case series and review of literature.
BACKGROUND Instability of the hip joint is a source of great discomfort to the patient due to pain, limp and leg-length discrepancy. Pelvic support osteotomy with Ilizarov hip reconstruction, along with its various modifications, has emerged as a standard treatment modality for this difficult problem. We present a series of patients with unstable hips treated with a modification of the monolate...
