Correction of Varus Deformity of the Femur and Tibia in Patient with LCL Laxity
摘要
This case illustrates an approach to a young patient with a large varus deformity and LCL laxityLCL laxityVarus deformity. After analyzing the deformity, it became clear that the varus was coming from the distal femur, proximal tibia, and joint line obliquity. Also present was a procurvatum deformity of the proximal tibia. We performed an acute deformity correction of the femur with a plate and a gradual correction of the tibia varus and procurvatum with a TSF. With correction of the deformity, the LCL laxity improved dramatically.
