Femur Lengthening for Growth Arrest

Femur lengthening with monolateral EBI frame for growth arrest

Doctor: Robert Rozbruch
Patient:Jocelyn

This child was in a serious accident that caused her femur growth plate to close and a resulting leg length discrepancy and deformity. An osteotomy of the femur was done for gradual lengthening and deformity correction in addition to a hemiepiphyseal stapling of the tibia.
