Mar 30th, 2021 - Hydroxyapatite (HA) coated flexible intramedullary nailing (FIN) stimulates osteogenic activity. The role of HA-coated intramedullary nails remains unclear in normal bone lengthening. The goal of this study was to quantify the influence of FIN on ...

Dec 17th, 2020 - Longitudinal fibular deficiency (LFD) is the most common congenital long bone deficiency. This study aimed to objectively assess the physical performance of children and adolescents with LFD compared with unaffected peers, and to examine trends ov...

May 5th, 2020 - Practice Essentials There are multiple etiologies for tibial bowing (see Etiology). Tibial bowing specifically refers to bowing of the diaphysis of the tibia with the apex of the deformity directed anterolaterally, anteromedially, or posteromedial...

Jan 23rd, 2020 - Proximal focal femoral deficiency (PFFD) is a rare congenital skeletal abnormality characterised by the partial absence of the proximal femoral segment with shortening of the entire lower extremity. It typically presents as a shortened thigh, whic...

Sep 10th, 2019 - Limb lengthening for congenital femoral deficiency (CFD) with or without fibular hemimelia can be performed with both external and internal devices. The purpose of this study is to compare clinical outcomes of femoral lengthening utilizing monolat...
