BONE LENGTHENING

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1948
1. Two inches of lengthening may be gained in the femur, and three inches in the tibia and fibula, without complication. 2. More than this may be secured at the risk of temporary external popliteal paresis. 3. Lengthening of the tibia and fibula is more certain and more easy to control than lengthening of the femur. 4.

Bone Lengthening in the Craniofacial Skeleton

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1989
The process of bone lengthening by cortical fracture and gradual distraction of callus has become well established in the enchondral bones of the extremities. In this study the principles of bone lengthening were applied to the membranous bone of the craniofacial skeleton using the growing dog mandible as a model.

Mandibular bone lengthening

Operative Techniques in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1994
Abstract The ensuing discussion will illustrate the simple and effective procedure, which can be applied to patients with carniofacial microsomia, Nager syndrome, and developmental micrognathia. The technique of bone distraction or lengthening, originally popularized by l]izarov of Russia for reconstruction of deformities of the axial skeleton, can ...

Bone regeneration and limb lengthening

Osteoporosis International, 2011
Regeneration of bone in the presence of stable fixation and the maintenance of the osteogenic tissue (marrow, endosteum, nutrient artery, and periosteum) required another factor to stimulation of bone regeneration: incremental distraction produces bone of both endosteal and periosteal origin. The soft tissues undergo to same growth phenomenon.

Growing Bone: Lengthening and Grafting

2021
Reconstruction of extremities with segmental loss requires simultaneous and ongoing care of the patient’s overall physiology, extremity vascular status, infection treatment or prevention, and soft tissue coverage. However, for the bone itself, options for filling bone defects include distraction techniques and various grafting options.

Thumb reconstruction through metacarpal bone lengthening

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1980
The experience with thumb reconstruction through metacarpal bone lengthening in 35 patients treated over a period of 12 years is presented. In 25 cases a spontaneous consolidation of the gap between the distracted fragments occurred, whereas in the remaining 10 the gap was bridged by a bone graft. The elongation of the metacarpal achieved varied from 2

[Bone lengthening in children].

Cirugia pediatrica : organo oficial de la Sociedad Espanola de Cirugia Pediatrica, 1994
Since June 1987, were realized 45 limb lengthening (40 lower and 5 upper) in 34 children with between 3-15 years old. A dynamic axial fixator (DAF) system with telescoping capabilities, permits a slow distraction through a osteotomy and callotasis in 36 bones, and chondrodiatasis in 5.

Bone Lengthening in the Pediatric Upper Extremity

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, 2016
➤Bone lengthening has been used successfully for several congenital and acquired conditions in the pediatric clavicle, humerus, radius, ulna, and phalanges.➤Common indications for bone lengthening include achondroplasia, radial longitudinal deficiency, multiple hereditary exostosis, brachymetacarpia, symbrachydactyly, and posttraumatic and ...

Introduction of an Intraoral Bone-Lengthening Device

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1995
It has been demonstrated that distraction osteogenesis is an effective clinical tool with applications for the entire human skeleton. Therapeutic exploitation in the correction of the asymmetrical and hypoplastic mandible has been reported previously. However, the main criticism of this technique has been the residual cutaneous scars resulting from the
