Humeral lengthening and proximal deformity correction with monorail external fixator in young adults
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "International Orthopaedics"
DOI: 10.1007/s00264-017-3688-7
Abstract: PurposeSeveral humeral lengthening or simultaneous deformity corrections through one osteotomy using various external fixators were reported, while literature regarding correction of shortening and proximal varus deformity is scarce. This retrospective clinical study evaluated the results… read more here.
