Methods for Assessing Leg Length Discrepancy [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Orthopaedics & Related Research, 2008
The use of accurate and reliable clinical and imaging modalities for quantifying leg-length discrepancy (LLD) is vital for planning appropriate treatment. While there are several methods for assessing LLD, we questioned how these compared. We therefore evaluated the reliability and accuracy of the different methods and explored the advantages and ...

Effect of various levels of leg length discrepancy on gait

open access: yes, 2020
A leg length difference can arise in different ways. This leg length difference can then lead to deviations in gait. The scientific literature does not answer why a leg length difference of a minimum of 7 centimeters is a prerequisite for participation ...

Tension-band Plating for Leg-length Discrepancy Correction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
AIM: Dual tension-band plates are used for temporary epiphysiodesis and longitudinal guided growth. The study aim was to assess rate of correction, to identify development of femoral and tibial intra-articular deformity during correction and to document ...

Minimal invasive epiphysiodesis using a modified “Canale”-technique for correction of angular deformities and limb leg length discrepancies

open access: yesJournal of Children's Orthopaedics, 2009
Purpose Leg length discrepancy and angular deformities can, in contrast to adults; easily be corrected with epiphysiodesis during growth. Goal of this study was to evaluate our results of a modified Canale technique for definitive epiphysiodesis treating

Detecting Anatomical Leg Length Discrepancy Using the Plug-in-Gait Model

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2017
Leg length discrepancy (LLD) is a significant factor influencing several pathological conditions. Gait analysis is based on biomechanical gait models calculating joint kinematics; however, no previous study has validated its ability to detect anatomical ...

Measuring Dynamic Leg Length during Normal Gait

open access: yesSensors, 2018
Dynamic leg length [DLL] is a resultant factor of anatomic leg length and lower limb movement that is measured by the distance from the hip to the heel, ankle, and forefoot during the gait cycle.

Leg Length Discrepancy after Total Hip Replacement

open access: yes, 1997
Leg length differential in 110 patients with unilateral hip arthritis was measured on supine AP radiographs before and after hip arthroplasty, and compared with subjective sensation of leg length discrepancy at that time.
