Effects of Leg-Length Discrepancy Compensation and Wedge Foot-Orthoses on Tensor Fasciae Latae EMG in Runners [PDF]

Sports
Aims: Structural lower limb-length discrepancies (LLLD) have been classically associated with the etiology of low back pain. However, their biomechanical effects on lower-limb muscle activity during running remain unclear.

Syndromic capillary malformation with leg length discrepancy: Parkes-Weber syndrome treated by embolization, chemotherapy and Ilizarov technique [PDF]

Hereditas
Capillary malformations (CMs) are congenital low-flow vascular anomalies caused by dilated capillaries. Leg length discrepancy (LLD) is the condition characterized by unequal lower limb lengths, leading to functional and postural challenges.

Inflammation-induced leg length discrepancy in children: from molecular mechanisms to clinical implications [PDF]

Frontiers in Medicine
Leg length discrepancy (LLD) refers to a condition where the lower limbs are of unequal length, which can result from various underlying causes. Inflammatory conditions in children, such as monoarticular, pauciarticular or polyarticular juvenile ...

Eight plate should not be used for treating leg length discrepancy

Journal of Children's Orthopaedics, 2013
Purpose The Blount staple has been widely used for treating angular deformities and leg length discrepancy (LLD) of the lower limbs. In recent years, the Eight plate has replaced the Blount staple for treating angular deformities in many centres ...

Correlation between Leg Length Discrepancies (LLD) with ITB Syndrome: A Systematic Review

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2023
Backgrounds: Iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS) is one of the many different causes of lateral knee pain. The iliotibial band (ITB) is the distal fascial continuation of the tensor fascia lata, gluteus medius, and gluteal maximus.
