Abstract: Hip rotation during gait is a major indicator for femoral derotation osteotomy. However, repeatability of hip rotation is poor because of discrepancies in determining the medial-lateral axis of the femur. Combining 3D gait analysis with… read more here.

Abstract: Background: Femoral derotation osteotomy (FDO) for correction of internal rotation gait resulting from cerebral palsy (CP) can be performed with the patient in the prone or supine position. It is not known whether patient positioning… read more here.
