Atypical Bilateral Proximal Femoral Focal Deficiency: A Case Report and Review of Literature. [PDF]

Case Rep Pediatr
Introduction Proximal femoral focal deficiency (PFFD) is a rare congenital skeletal abnormality with an incidence of 1 per 100,000 births. It is typically a unilateral abnormality but can present bilaterally in 15% of PFFD cases. It is characterized by the absence of the proximal femur and shortening of the affected limb henceforth.

Cosmetic lower limb lengthening by Ilizarov apparatus: what are the risks? [PDF]

Clin Orthop Relat Res, 2014
Compelled by the psychosocial implications of short stature, patients with short stature are increasingly undergoing distraction osteogenesis for cosmetic limb lengthening. To the degree that this is true, evaluation of the risks and benefits of this treatment are very important, but to date, there are few studies reporting on using distraction ...

Innovative Application of the Ilizarov Technique for Long Nerve Defect Reconstruction: A Detailed Case Report. [PDF]

Orthop Surg
This study demonstrates successful tissue regeneration through distraction osteogenesis via the Ilizarov technique. Particularly noteworthy is our innovative approach to nerve lengthening, where we attach the nerve stump to the bone stump, thus promoting substantial nerve regeneration and ensuring steady progress.

Advances in the Application of Bone Transport Techniques in the Treatment of Bone Nonunion and Bone Defects

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 15, Issue 12, Page 3046-3054, December 2023., 2023
A: Thorough debridement and fixation. B: Filling with PMMA bone cement. C: 6–8 weeks after placement of PMMA bone cement, remove the bone cement and membrane induced endograft. D: Fusion of the grafted bone with the surrounding bone. Bone nonunion and bone defects frequently occur following high‐energy open injuries or debridement surgeries, presenting

First Clinical Case of Ilizarov Femur Lengthening over a Bioactive and Degradable Intramedullary Implant

Case Reports in Orthopedics, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Introduction. The Ilizarov distraction osteogenesis is a recognized method of limb lengthening in orthopaedic practice. Its most challenging problems are long duration of external fixation and related pin‐tract infection and joint contractures. The solution might be the use of a bioactive degradable intramedullary implant stimulating bone healing. Case

Lateral Gradual Opening Osteotomy of the Tibia With Monolateral External Fixator for Correcting the Valgus Deformity of the Tibia

Arthroscopy Techniques, Volume 11, Issue 12, Page e2271-e2277, December 2022., 2022
Abstract The valgus deformity in the tibia requires correction because it places increased pressure on the lateral compartment of the knee, intensifying the degenerative process. Correction strategies are diverse and depend on patient profile, age, and soft‐tissue conditions as well as the orthopaedic surgeon's experience with different surgical ...
