Hemiepiphysiodesis by Eight Plate Versus Osteotomy in the Management of Pediatric Coronal Knee Deformities
Sponsor: Al-Azhar University
Summary
Coronal angular deformities of lower limb in children are a common finding in pediatric orthopedic surgery.These angular deformities can be idiopathic in origin, or they can emerge secondary to congenital and acquired abnormalities. Persistent coronal plane deformities around knee (genu varum/valgum) could lead to meniscal tears, collateral ligament laxity, cartilage degeneration, and early osteoarthritis due to gradual mechanical axis disruption

Eight-Plates first described by Stevens are simple to use
fewer complications in terms of implant loosening and fracture can be expected.Good results as well as low rebound and complication rates have been recorded
