Complex Deformity After PFFD Treatment – Multifocal, Gradual Correction on Femur and Tibia with Monolateral External Fixation
摘要
Many complications may be encountered during or following deformity correction and limb lengthening surgeries. Integrated techniques were used to decrease the patient’s time wearing the external fixator. Preoperative analysis and planning is necessary to determine the osteotomy level, to simulate the deformity correction and simultaneous lengthening, and to choose the type of implant for stabilization. This chapter presents a complex, gradual, multi-level deformity correctionMulti-level deformity correction, and limb lengtheningLimb lengthening for a 23 year old female having complex deformity and LLD after previous proximal femoral focal deficiency (PFFD) treatment.
