This work aims to present an in-house low-cost computer-aided simulation (CASS) process that was recently implemented in the preoperative planning of complex osteotomies for limb deformities children. Five patients admitted Unit Paediatric Orthopaedics and Traumatology from April 2018 December 2019, correcting congenital or post-traumatic were included study. Three-dimensional (3D) digital models generated Computed Tomography (CT) scans, using free open-source software, surgery planned...
Three-dimensional printed custom cutting guides (CCGs) are becoming more and investigated in medical literature, as a patient-specific approach is often desired very much needed today’s surgical practice. printing applications computer-aided simulations (CASS) allow for meticulous preoperatory planning substantial reductions of operating time risk human error. However, several limitations seem to slow the large-scale adoption 3D CCGs. CAD designing skills inevitably develop workflow address...
The management of moderate and severe slipped capital femoral epiphysis is still an issue. main concern represented by the choice intra-articular or extra-articular osteotomy to correct deformity. Theoretically, allows best correction, but it technically demanding involves a higher risk avascular necrosis (AVN); conversely, intertrochanteric (ITO) easier lower early complications, may lead femoroacetabular impingement, resulting in osteoarthritis need for total hip replacement (THR).The aim...
The treatment of a missed Monteggia (MM) fracture dislocation is still controversial. We describe our initial experience with ulnar osteotomy and progressive correction unilateral external fixator in MM. retrospectively evaluated 20 children undergoing distraction angulation by to treat Nine patients had closed reduction, whereas 11 simultaneous open repair, or reconstruction the annular ligament K-wire stabilization radiocapitellar joint. Patients were followed for an average 3 (1-11)...
Specific data regarding the frequencies of congenital upper limb anomalies (CULA) according to their etiology are hardly available due heterogeneity across classification systems. In this study, we aim at defining CULA patients that have been evaluated Modena University Hospital's Congenital Hand Malformations multidisciplinary clinic in years 2004 2012.Medical records 487 were retrospectively reviewed. On basis clinical, anamnestic, and genetic data, distributed into two main groups: (1)...
Background: Neglected fractures of the lateral humeral condyle (LHC) are misdiagnosed or insufficiently treated fractures, presenting later than 3 weeks after injury. The management neglected LHC in children remains controversial. Methods: Twenty-seven were included this retrospective study. Charts and medical records investigated for demographics, time interval between injury treatment, type treatment. Baseline radiographs assessed fracture grading displacement. Final bone healing,...
Improvements in software for image analysis have enabled advances both medical and engineering industries, including the use of tools to recreate internal parts human body accurately. A research found that FDM-sourced elements shown viability a customized reliable approach orthopedics field. Three-dimensional printing has allowed enhanced accuracy preoperative planning, leading reduced surgery times, fewer unnecessary tissue perforations, healing complications. Furthermore, using custom...
Guided-growth modulation is a first-line treatment widely adopted to correct lower-limb angular deformities and limb-length discrepancies (LLD) in the paediatric population.
Abstract Background The management of painful rigid flatfoot (RFF) with talocalcaneal coalition (TCC) is controversial. We aimed to compare operative and nonoperative treatment in children RFF TCC. Methods retrospectively reviewed medical records radiographs TTC treated between 2005 2015. consisted manipulation under anesthesia, cast immobilization shoe insert after removal. combined TCC resection, graft interposition subtalar arthroereisis. Results Thirty-four (47 ft) the group twenty-one...
Torsional deformities of the lower limb are common in children with cerebral palsy (CP)-determining gait problems. The mechanisms underlying transverse plane deviations arise from a combination dynamic and static factors. elements may be due to spasticity, contractures muscle imbalances, while ones result excessive femoral anteversion, which decreases efficiency hip abductors by reducing muscular lever arms. A therapeutic approach has been identified multi-level functional surgery for limb....
The objective of this study was to determine the efficacy PRECICE 2® nail in treatment lower limb length discrepancy patients with a history bone tumors. This reports on outcomes, complications, and safety 2 lengthening cohort pediatric after surgery for Seventeen were treated intramedullary magnetic nails. average patient age at time 19 (range 11-32). used 14 femurs (6 retrograde 8 anterograde) 3 tibias. consolidation 141 days 50-360) mean CI 31 ± 12 days/cm. ASAMI score showed (82%)...
Treatment of cases congenital pseudarthrosis the fibula presenting with severe or progressive valgus deformity in early childhood is challenging. The purpose study presented was to analyse deforming mechanisms get therapeutic recommendations for this condition. A 2.5-year-old child treated by resection and distal tibiofibular fusion (Langenskiold operation) autogenous bone grafting, associated subtalar arthroereisis: correction achieved. 21-month-old pseudarthrosis, homologous grafting...
Peripheral nerve injuries (PNI) of the upper limb are a common event in paediatric population, following both fractures and soft tissues injuries. Open should theory be easier to identify repair injured structures performed as soon possible order obtain satisfying outcome. Conversely, due reduced compliance younger children during clinical assessment, diagnosis closed injury may sometimes delayed. As patients is influenced by pain, anxiety stress, execution manoeuvres intended loss motor...
Background: Multiple osteochondromas is a rare skeletal disorder characterized by the presence of osteocartilaginous protrusions causing bony deformities, especially around knee. Guided growth temporary hemiepiphyseal stapling treatment choice to correct deformity modulating residual physeal lower limbs. Although this procedure increasingly practiced, inconclusive evidence exists regarding its effectiveness in children with multiple osteochondromas. The study aims compare outcomes for...
The outcome of 56 children (61 shoulders) treated surgically at the Rizzoli Institute between April 1975 and June 2010 for congenital elevation scapula is reported. There were 31 girls 25 boys with a mean age surgery 6.4 years (2 to 15). deformity involved right shoulder in 20 cases, left was bilateral five. degree graded clinically radiologically according classifications Cavendish Rigault, respectively. All patients underwent modified Green procedure combined, selected resection...
congenital posteromedial bowing of tibia (CPMBT) is a very rare birth defect, characterized by shortened bowed leg and ankle deformity. We described single institution experience in the management CPMBT.
