Once used routinely, trochanteric osteotomy in total hip arthroplasty now is usually limited to difficult primary and revision cases. There are three types: the standard trochanteric osteotomy and its variations, the trochanteric slide, and the extended trochanteric osteotomy. Each has unique indications, fixation techniques, and complications. Primary total hip arthroplasty procedures requirin...

Pemberton's osteotomy has been recognized as a standard technique for the treatment of acetabular dysplasia. The aim of this article is to describe the surgical technique of a double-level pelvic osteotomy. To the authors' knowledge, this technique has never been reported. The osteotomy was performed in a case of severe pan-acetabular dysplasia where a single, classic Pemberton's osteotomy was ...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to objectively evaluate hypoesthesia of the upper lip following Le Fort I osteotomy in combination with mandibular osteotomy with trigeminal somatosensory evoked potential (TSEP). SUBJECTS AND METHODS The subjects consisted of 25 patients with mandibular prognathism with maxillary retrognathism mandibular prognathism with or without asymmetry, who underwe...

Triple pelvic osteotomy is an accepted technique to correct acetabular dysplasia and degenerative labral pathology in young adults. Few papers mentioned the rate of nonunion at site of osteotomy of pubic bone and ischeal bone. No report about nonunion at site of osteotomy of iliac bone (up to the author's knowledge). Here the author reported a case of triple pelvic osteotomy which is complicate...

Greater understanding of the surgeon's task and skills are required to improve surgical technique and the effectiveness of training. Currently, neither the objective measurement of osteotomy forces during endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) nor the validity of the properties of cadaver materials, are well documented. Measurement was performed of peak axial osteotomy force during ESS. A comparison wa...

INTRODUCTION Insufficient femoral head coverage is found in a variety of diseases, with acetabular dysplasia as the most frequent disorder and triple pelvic osteotomy as the most recently introduced surgical treatment. OBJECTIVE This study analyses pre- and postoperative pathoanatomic characteristics of triple in comparison to Salter and Chiari osteotomies, with a logistic regression analysis...

We have compared different types of intertrochanteric osteotomy for avascular necrosis of the hip and evaluated their performance in the light of improving outcome after total hip arthroplasty (THA). During a period of 14 years we performed 63 flexion osteotomies (partly combined with varus or valgus displacement), 29 rotational osteotomies, 13 varus osteotomies, eight medialising osteotomies a...

background: high tibia osteotomy (hto) is a common surgical operation for correction of genu varum deformity. in some patients,there are concurrent tibia vara and genu varum (bow leg). this study aimed to consider the possibility of better correction of bow leg deformity after double level tibial osteotomy (dlto). materials and methods: a case series of 10 patients of genu varum in addition to ...

introduction : lateral osteotomy is a major part of rhinoplasty for remodeling external facet of the nose and narrowing of nasal base and dorsum after removal of the hump with the edema and ecchymosis being the major sequels of the operation. the present study compared post-operative edema and ecchymosis and mucosa tears between internal and external osteotomy techniques. materials and methods ...

Femoral head coverage achieved with an acetabular osteotomy for hip dysplasia is achieved by acetabular rotation that can be restricted by osteotomy orientation and soft tissue attachments to the acetabular fragment. Procedures that allow excess rotation or motion in an undesirable direction (especially external rotation) may have undesirable consequences. Rotational aspects of these procedures...
