Coronal Plane Screening of Lower Limb Deformity [PDF]
Lower limb deformity is defined as deviation of the normal alignment or orientation of the affected limb1,2. Pre-operative planning for deformity correction involves identification of the cause of deformity, be it from the bone (femur or tibia), the ...

Coronal plane laxity of valgus osteoarthritic knee [PDF]
Introduction: Balanced soft tissues are important to total knee arthroplasty (TKA) outcomes. Surgical algorithms for balancing are potentially varied in varus and valgus osteoarthritic (OA) knees. While coronal plane varus knee laxity has been documented,

Short segment coronal plane stability screws in retrograde nailing of proximal femoral shaft fractures: a technical trick and case series [PDF]
. Retrograde intramedullary nailing is commonly used for fixation of femoral shaft fractures due to high healing rates and ease of placement. However, for proximal femur fractures, there is concern that the limited distance between the fracture and ...

Hemiepiphysiodesis Corrects Lower Extremity Coronal Plane Deformity in Children with Skeletal Dysplasia Irrespective of Intra-Articular Malalignment [PDF]
Background: Skeletal dysplasias (SkD) are a rare group of disorders characterized by abnormal growth and development of bone and cartilage, often causing limb deformity. Many patients also have ligamentous instability that can accentuate the malalignment.
