Transphyseal Hemiepiphysiodesis: Is it Truly Reversible?
Background: Although numerous studies reported the efficacy of percutaneous epiphysiodesis using transphyseal screws (PETS) in correcting angular knee deformities, many surgeons refrained from using it in younger children because of a lack of objective evidence of reversibility. Our hypothesis is that PETS is both truly reversible and effective.
Methods: Twenty-one patients aged 8 to 13 years (36 lower limbs LL) with coronal plane knee deformity were enrolled into this prospective case series from January 2021 to September 2023. Besides the routine monitoring of PETS efficacy, low dose CT knee of 32 treated physes was done 6 months after screw removal. In addition, lower limb length, mechanical lateral distal femur angle (mLDFA), and medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA) were recorded preoperatively and 6 to 17 months after screw removal for 24 LL to investigate physis behavior, technique reversibility, and resumption of bone growth after screw removal.
Results: The mean mechanical axis deviation (MAD) correction rate was 3.46 mm/mo and 1.78 mm/mo for genu valgum and genu varum patients, respectively. No physeal bony bars could be detected 6 months after screw removal for all patients. Out of 24 physis that underwent computerized radiography (CR) of the whole lower limb, 12 LL resumed their growth, 4 were stationary, while 8 were excluded due to inadequate calibration. A single physis showed rebound deformity, and another showed overcorrection in the genu valgum group.
Conclusions: In addition to being a highly effective method of hemiepiphysiodesis, PETS was found to be reproducible, safe, and reversible when used in the juvenile and early adolescent pediatric population.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
