“…Staple epiphyseodesis is usually performed well before the anticipated physiological termination of growth and not recommended for children younger than ten years. Raab et al observed in their study of 34 extremities treated with Blount staples a higher rate of loosening and displacement of the staples in children younger than eight years, which was statistically significant [14]. In contrast to this observation, however, Mielke and Stevens noted only one case of staple loosening on their study sample of 25 patients who underwent surgery at an average age of 6.3 years [9].…”
