Abstract:Purpose
The accuracy of intraoperative control of correction commonly is achieved by K‐wires or Schanz‐screws in combination with goniometer in de‐rotational osteotomies. The purpose of this study is to investigate the accuracy of intraoperative torsional control in de‐rotational femoral and tibial osteotomies. It is hypothesized, that intraoperative control by Schanz‐screws and goniometer in de‐rotational osteotomies around the knee is a safe and well predictable method to control the surgical torsional corre… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
