Lengthening of congenital lower limb shortness with the methods of Ilizarov

Year 1995, Volume: 29 Issue: 2, 139 - 141, 11.09.2006

Abstract

32 patients with congenital shortness of the lower extremity were treated in Baku Ortopedic and Traumatologic Scientific Research Institute between 1985-1992 utilising the Ilizarov methods. The patients were between the ages of 3-12 with a shortness of 3 to 12 cm. The shortness was in the femur in 10 patients and tibia in 22. Complications encountered in this series were equinus deformity of the foot in 2 patients, flexion deformity of the knee in 2 patients, 4 deep pin tract infection and one deformity in the regenerate following fixator removal. According to our results we think that the methods developed by Ilizarov consisting of corticotomy and circular fixator application is perfectly suitable for congenital lower limb shortness.

Abstract

1985-1992 yılları arasında, Bakü Ortopedi ve Travmatoloji Bilimsel Araştırma Enstitüsünde konjenital alt ekstremite kısalığı bulunan 32 hasta İlizarov yöntemi kullanllarak tedavi edilmistir. Hastaların yaşları 3 ile 12 arası ve en küçük uzunluk farkı 3 cm, en büyük uzunluk farkı ise 12 cm idi. Kısalık 10 hastada femurda, 22 hastada ise tibiada idi. Tedavi sırasında 2 hastada ayakta ekin deformitesi, iki hastada dizde fleksiyon tipi kontraktür 4 hastada derin pin tract enfeksiyonu, bir hastada ise fiksator çıkarıldıktan sonra regenaratta deformite meydana geldi. İlizarov'un tarif etmiş olduğu prensiplere uyularak yapılacak olan kontikotomi ve eksternal fiksator uygulamasının, konjenital alt ekstremite kısalıklarının tedavisinde kullanılabilecek iyi bir yöntem olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.
