Hemiepiphysiodesis by Eight Plate Versus Osteotomy in the Management of Pediatric Coronal Knee Deformities

Coronal angular deformities of lower limb in children are a common finding in pediatric orthopedic surgery.These angular deformities can be idiopathic in origin, or they can emerge secondary to congenital and acquired abnormalities. Persistent coronal plane deformities around knee (genu varum/valgum) could lead to meniscal tears, collateral ligament laxity, cartilage degeneration, and early osteoarthritis due to gradual mechanical axis disruption

About this study

Eight-Plates first described by Stevens are simple to use .Moreover, owing to the flexible screw/plate connection, fewer complications in terms of implant loosening and fracture can be expected.Good results aswell as low reboundand complication rates have been recorded for the first series of cases
