METHOD FOR TREATING VARUS DEFORMATION OF COLLUM FEMORIS Russian patent published in 2002 - IPC

FIELD: medicine, juvenile orthopedics. SUBSTANCE: first stage of therapy deals with trapezoidal section of femoral proximal department in metadiaphysial area from outwards inwards; moreover, along posterior and anterior femoral surfaces corticotomy line passes cross-sectionally right above the level of minor trochanter, the line of internal section begins from under the top of major trochanter, comes obliquely from the top downwards and appears at corticotomy line of previous section above minor trochanter. During the second stage one should form the groove in collum femoris being nearer to major trochanter from the side of trabecular bone, valgus of femoral collum and caput is performed by turning it at the developed top of femoral bone diaphysis, transplant should be placed into developed wedge-shaped split under collum femoris to save growth areas and restore biomechanics in a joint. EFFECT: higher efficiency of therapy. 4 dwg, 1 ex
