Trochanteric advancement for premature arrest of the femoral capital growth plate.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Premature closure of the growth plate of the femoral capital epiphysis associated with limitation of abduction and gluteal insufficiency is described. The indications for trochanteric advancement and the results obtained in the late treatment of Perthes' disease and of congenital dislocation are discussed. Nine hips treated after Perthes' disease had satisfactory results, in that all were improved; but in eight hips with deformity arising from congenital dislocation the outcome was less favourable.

Biomechanical considerations in slipped capital femoral epiphysis and insights into prophylactic fixation
PURPOSE Slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) is a deformity of the proximal femur secondary to widened and unstable physis. In stabilising the slip, gold standard treatments stop growth and involve premature physeal closure, which prevents the remodelling of the acquired deformity and creates a leg length discrepancy that may be significant in younger patients. METHODS We measured the imp...
متن کاملTrochanteric growth disturbance after upper femoral osteotomy for congenital dislocation of the hip.
We reviewed 14 patients (16 hips) treated by open reduction and upper femoral derotation osteotomy for congenital dislocation of the hip. Nine patients with 11 treated hips had growth deformities of the proximal femur; in all of them the top screw of the fixation plate lay within the cartilaginous precursor of the greater trochanter. In the five control hips the top screw was more distal. In th...

This is a retrospective observational study. Greater trochanteric epiphysiodesis (GTE) has been recommended to prevent Trendelenburg gait and limitation of the hip joint motion due to trochanteric overgrowth after femoral varus osteotomy (FVO) in Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD). However, capital femoral physeal arrest frequently occurs in patients with severe disease (lateral pillar C), so GT...
متن کاملSub-capital coxa valga after varus osteotomy for congenital dislocation of the hip.
Coxa valga may sometimes occur as a complication of varus osteotomy for congenital dislocation of the hip. Six such cases are described with a minimum follow-up of nine years. In three cases the varus osteotomy had been performed on only one side; in one case it was done on both sides and coxa valga developed bilaterally; and in two further bilateral cases coxa valga developed on one side only....
متن کاملTrochanteric osteotomy and advancement: a technique for abductor related hip instability.
Current indications for trochanteric osteotomy include improving exposure to the femoral intramedullary canal through correction of proximal femoral angular deformities, such as medial greater trochanteric overhang1; improving general exposure to the acetabulum and femoral canal in complex primary and revision hip total hip arthroplasty (THA)2; and facilitating exposure to the anterosuperior ac...
