Unexpected angular or rotational deformity after corrective osteotomy
BACKGROUND Codman's paradox reveals a misunderstanding of geometry in orthopedic practice. Physicians often encounter situations that cannot be understood intuitively during orthopedic interventions such as corrective osteotomy. Occasionally, unexpected angular or rotational deformity occurs during surgery.This study aimed to draw the attention of orthopedic surgeons toward the concepts of orie...
متن کاملTri-plane Osteotomy Correction of Distal Radius Malunion Addresses Shortening, Angular, and Rotational Deformity
INTRODUCTION: Rotational malalignment following fracture of the distal radius may be under appreciated and contribute to subluxation and dysfunction of the distal radioulnar joint. Rotational malunion is demonstrated by both plain radiographic and CT imaging. METHODS: Eleven patients with shortened, angular and rotational malunion underwent correction by performance of triplane osteotomy. Addit...
متن کاملTilt of the Radius from Forearm Rotational Axis Reliably Predicts Rotational Improvement after Corrective Osteotomy for Malunited Forearm Fractures
Forearm rotation occurs around an axis connecting the center of the radial head and the fovea of the distal ulna. The purpose of the present study was to demonstrate the usefulness of the difference between forearm and proximal radial axis in the treatment of malunited forearm fractures. We reviewed the results of eight corrective osteotomies for malunited fractures of the forearm without dislo...
متن کاملAn accurate method of determining a single-plane osteotomy to correct a combined rotational and angular deformity
Conventional osteotomy used for the correction of deformity is performed out of the plane of deformity creating a wedge either opening or closing when the deformity is corrected. Deformity that is a combination of rotation and angulation exists in a single plane that is oblique to the coronal, sagittal and axial planes depending on the magnitude of deformity measured in each plane. Accurate pla...
متن کاملSaddle embolism after corrective femoral osteotomy: a case report.
We present a case of recurrent saddle embolism 6 days and 9 days following corrective osteotomy of the left femur in a 64-year-old man with a history of atrial fibrillation. Although saddle embolism is a relatively rare event, orthopaedic surgeons should be aware of this condition.
