Orthosis Effects on the Gait of a Child with Infantile Tibia Vara
Infantile tibia vara (ITV) is an acquired form of tibial deformity associated with tibial varus and internal torsion. As there is currently insufficient data available on the effects of orthotics on gait parameters, this study aimed to document the influence of orthosis on walking. A male infant with bilateral tibia vara used orthoses for five months. Gait evaluations were performed pre- and po...
متن کاملCorrection of tibia vara with six-axis deformity analysis and the Taylor Spatial Frame.
Operative correction for infantile and adolescent tibia vara has been described using both external and internal fixation. Gradual correction using a circular fixator offers the advantage of accurate coronal, sagittal, and axial plane correction without significant soft tissue dissection. This study evaluated the use of six-axis deformity analysis and the Taylor Spatial Frame (TSF) for the corr...
متن کاملFemoral deformity in tibia vara.
BACKGROUND Previous studies have suggested that compensatory valgus deformity of the femur is common in patients with tibia vara, or Blount disease. The availability and routine use of standing long-cassette radiographs of the lower extremities to assess angular deformities has allowed quantitative evaluation of this hypothesis. METHODS The cases of all patients with tibia vara, two years of ...
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 کاملObservations on the Etiology of Tibia Vara
Varus deformity at the upper end of the tibia was reported by Erlacher (1922) and LUlsdorf (1931), who considered it to be a type of osteochondritis. Blount (1937) presented a personal series of thirt en cases and reviewed fifteen cases from the literature. He called the condition tibia vara and suggested that the term osteochondrosis was more appropriate than osteochondritis. Further reports o...
