Introduction The Oxford Foot Model (OFM) [1] has been used routinely in clinical practice to assess foot deformity during gait in our laboratory since 2004. Over this time, 163 patients with various pathologies have been assessed. The aim of this study was to determine the OFM's clinical relevance in defining dynamic foot deformity thereby assisting management decisions in two populations: idio...

INTRODUCTION Neglected case of nonunion of fracture both bones forearm with deformity is very difficult to manage. Treatment options are minimal. Identifying such a case in literature is also very rare. One such rare case is discussed here. CASE REPORT Here, we present a case of a 65-year-old male patient, who was operated 15 years back for fracture both bones forearm, with 3.5 mm dynamic com...

Fibular hemimelia presents with foot deformity and leg length discrepancy. Previous classifications have focused on the degree of fibular deficiency rather than the type of foot deformity. Published methods of surgical reconstruction have often failed due to residual or recurrent foot deformity. The purpose of this report is to introduce new classification and reconstruction methods. The Paley ...

The objective of this clinical trial was to compare the efficacy and safety of letibotulinum toxin A and onabotulinum toxin A for improving dynamic equinus foot deformity in children with cerebral palsy (CP). In total, 144 children with spastic CP who had dynamic equinus foot deformity were assigned randomly to the Botulax group (injection of letibotulinum toxin A) or the Botox group (injection...

Background & Importance: Spinal deformity is one of the most common disorders among the vertebral diseases that results from unnatural curvatures of spine, such as scoliosis and kyphosis. Spinal fusion surgery is used most commonly to treat certain types of spinal deformity. Herein, we reported the efficacy of posterior spinal fusion accompanied by instrumentation in patients with the...

INTRODUCTION Temporo-mandibular joint ankylosis is a common cause of acquired deformity in children. PURPOSE Surgical correction of the ankylosis only leaves the patient with an uncorrected mandibular deformity. This study was to evaluate the use of distraction osteogenesis for simultaneous correction of the mandibular deformity. MATERIAL This study was done on six children with temporo-man...

OBJECTIVE To report the use of three dimensional (3D) computed tomographic (CT) imaging, computer simulation and rapid prototype modelling to aid surgical correction of a complex antebrachial deformity in a dog. METHODS A six-year-old, 13 kg spayed female Chihuahua crossbreed dog was presented for worsening forelimb gait and exercise intolerance. Both forelimbs had gross angular limb deformit...

INTRODUCTION Fibrous dysplasia is a rare benign disorder of the skeletal system characterized by fibro osseous proliferation with intervening areas of normal or immature bone in the intramedullary region. It can either be a monostotic (involves one bone) or a polyostotic (involves more than one bone) presentation and usually occurs equally in males and females. Deformities like scoliosis and sh...

Purpose: To assess the utility of a 2D dynamic HASTE sequence in assessment cervical spine flexion-extension, specifically (1) comparing spondylolisthesis to radiographs and (2) assessing contact upon or deformity cord.Methods: Patients with flexion-extension sagittal addition routine sequences were identified. Static listhesis was first determined on reviewed consensus. Blinded independently p...

although various techniques have been described for treatment of severe nose deformities, these problems have high revision rates.  conventional nasal septal surgery may not be adequate for all cases. a 21-year-old male patient with nose deformity underwent a nasal surgery. patient had both functional and aesthetic nasal problems. rigid fibular bone graft was used for corrective nasal surgery. ...
