In cerebral palsy, patients’ excessive femoral anteversion is one of the most common skeletal abnormalities. The general agreement concurrent correction both soft tissue and bony deformities during same operative setting by combining open derotation osteotomy (FDO) with releases. Fifty-one children (75 lower limbs) palsy a mean age 10.7 years (range 6–16 years) fulfilling inclusion criteria who underwent percutaneous FDO when needed customized Derotation was maintained pin-in-cast technique....
In 50 consecutive ambulating purely spastic diplegic children (100 limbs), with a mean age of 6.4 y having bilateral hamstring tightness popliteal angle ≥ 50° the Thomas test was done and popliteal, modified shift were determined. Radiologically, sacrofemoral (SFA) lumbar lordosis angel measured. The correlations between SFA shift, analyzed effect muscle imbalance on these angles assessed.
In order to substantially improve crouch pattern in cerebral palsy, the existent patella alta needs be addressed. This pilot study evaluates effectiveness of a previously described infrapatellar tendon plication for treatment gait skeletally immature spastic palsy patients.In 10 patients (20 knees) with diplegia and gait, technique by Joseph et al. was evaluated within setting single event multilevel surgery (SEMLS). Outcome measures included knee extension lag, Koshino's radiological index...
Purpose: Corrective osteotomy is the gold standard for varus angular deformity, but a major surgical intervention with operative site morbidity. The proposed percutaneous technique adds lot of privileges to corrective . It cosmetically accepted , minimize risk infection, acute correction, no need plate fixation or staged operation remove hardware. Patients and methods: 25 cases (30 limbs) were included in our study. 12 patients males (14 13 female (16 limbs). Six have bilateral genu varum,...
