The mean Dimeglio score at the start of treatment was 13.5/20 (range: 6/20–19/20). All patients had clinical and radiographic follow-up for at least 2 years (range: 2–4 years). If orthopedic treatment was ineffective and feet showed no improvement, further surgery was performed. Posterior release was performed in eight (8.7%) feet. Clinical evaluation at the last follow-up found a mean dorsal flexion of 20°±5° (range: 5°–35°). The hybrid method is a combination approach applying the strengths of Ponseti’s method, that is, serial casting, and the French physiotherapy method, that is, manipulations and radiographs, to achieve long-term correction with a foot that is fully functional and pain free.","PeriodicalId":16709,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics B","volume":"20 1","pages":"197–203"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83320673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The optical ORTEN system for trunk surface data acquisition was used to calculate thoracic volume, perimeter, anterior–posterior and transversal diameters, T1–T12 length, and sternal length. There was no significant difference in thoracic dimensions and volume between scoliosis and reference groups in either girls or boys. Thoracic volume correlated with weight and with sitting height. The transversal diameter represented ∼30%, the anterior–posterior diameter 20%, and the thoracic perimeter 100% of sitting height. Mild and moderate scoliosis does not affect thoracic diameters and volume at any stage of growth. Relationships between thoracic parameters and sitting height are valuable indicators in clinical practice.

Young children are often only symptomatic with activities and as they grow. Operative management in an asymptomatic child is debatable, with various techniques reported in the literature. This is a retrospective, single-centre case series study. All children with CPC treated surgically by resection, bone grafting (nonvascular iliac crest) and plate fixation between 2004 and 2012 at our centre were included. Excluded conditions were traumatic or obstetric fractures of the clavicle, children with musculoskeletal or neurological disorders and children lost to follow-up. Clinical and radiological examination was performed at 6 weeks, 3 months and between 6 and 12 months postoperatively. A total of eight clavicles in seven children (four girls and three boys), with a mean age of 7.1 years (5–8 years), were operated with a mean follow-up of 7 years (4–10 years). In six children, the right (dominant) side was affected, with one child affected bilaterally. Overall, 85% of our patients showed good functional results 6 weeks postoperatively and complete radiographic consolidation at a mean of 8.5 months (3–25 months) postoperatively.

This method was first applied for isolated clubfeet and later on for other types of clubfoot (teratologic, residual, and neurogenic). Premature babies sustaining clubfoot commonly suffer from additional congenital and acquired medical problems. These may postpone clubfoot management until urgent issues are resolved. The current study describes early initiation of treatment of clubfoot in premature babies at the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and their outcomes. The study group included all babies diagnosed with clubfoot and managed in the NICU (for any etiology) between 2006 and 2012. Management was based on the Ponseti protocol for serial casting. We also report on neonates who died in the NICU before or during treatment. We specifically describe adverse events of early casting and situations necessitating removal of casts or termination of treatment. We diagnosed and treated 20 neonates with clubfoot (four females and 16 males, 10 bilateral cases). Gestational age ranged from 27 weeks to term. Eight were identified with clubfoot by prenatal sonographic survey and 10 were diagnosed with a defined syndrome. Seven had respiratory support, including one with a chest drain (50%). Length of stay in the NICU ranged from 3 to 90 days. Four neonates died while in the NICU (all syndromatic). In the remaining 16 cases, treatment began as early as medically possible. The first cast was applied within the first week of life in 14 cases. A total of 75 casts were applied during the study period. Three casts (4%) were removed because of leg edema or a need for venous access. Casts were routinely replaced every 4–7 days. Achilles tenotomies were performed in the NICU for babies achieving satisfactory correction. At last follow-up, 10 children were independent walkers and six were nonambulatory; all showed successful correction of clubfeet. The results of this study show that in most cases, clubfoot treatment is feasible and effective within the first week of life. Instances necessitating immediate cast removal are highlighted. Although while facing acute life-threatening medical problems, the treatment of clubfoot may not be considered a priority, most neonates will grow up into independent individuals; thus, every effort should be made to initiate the best clubfoot management with minimal delay.","PeriodicalId":16709,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics B","volume":"48 1","pages":"108–111"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88641315","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
