Introduction: Loeys-Dietz syndrome (LDS) is an autosomal dominant connective tissue disorder associated with aortic aneurysm/dissection in children. However, LDS may also present with a host of orthopaedic conditions. This study aimed to elucidate the management of orthopaedic conditions and associated outcomes in patients with LDS. Methods: PubMed, Ovid MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library were systematically searched for primary articles regarding the management of orthopaedic conditions in patients with LDS. The goals and findings of each included study were described. Data regarding demographics, conditions studied, treatment modalities, and outcomes were extracted and analyzed. Results: Three hundred sixty-two unique articles were retrieved, 13 of which were included, with 4 retrospective cohort studies and 9 case reports representing 435 patients. In total, 19.8% of patients presenting with orthopaedic conditions received surgical treatment;54.3% of them experienced adverse outcomes, and 44.4% required revision surgery. The mean age at surgery was 9.0 ± 2.1 years. Conclusion: Patients with LDS may require early surgical intervention for a variety of orthopaedic conditions and may be at an increased risk for surgical complications. The current LDS literature is primarily focused on spinal conditions with a relative paucity of data on the management of hip deformity, joint subluxation, clubfoot, and trauma. Additional research is required regarding orthopaedic management for this unique population.

“…Since its first use over three decades ago when electrodes were placed subdurally over the dorsal columns of the spinal cord, SCS has been further refined, and multiple studies have demonstrated its efficacy in the treatment of intractable, chronic pain with a variety of causes (13). SCS has been used to successfully treat chronic pain in patients with failed back syndrome (11,12), ischemic limb pain (13), angina pectoris (14,15), painful peripheral neuropathies (16,17), visceral abdominal pain syndrome (18–22), chronic nonalcoholic pancreatitis, generalized abdominal pain, abdominal wall neuromas, and posttraumatic splenectomy (23–28).…”
