Summary

To assess the therapeutic effect of hinged 8-figure plate by comparing with the traditional 8-figure plate through a randomized controlled clinical trial by assessing the differences between preoperative and postoperative data.

The hypothesis is that the hinged 8 plate provides low complications that this treatment is as good as the traditional one.

Conditions

  • Genu Valgum or Varum
  • Growth; Arrested, Bone
  • Epiphyseal Arrest, Lower Leg

Interventions

DEVICE

hinged 8-figure plate

Hinged 8-figure plate has two arms and a built-in hinge. The rotation of the two arms ranged from 155° to 170° to better fit the contour of the physis in all stages of angular correction. That automatic change can also disperse repeated stress on the surface of periosteum and perichondrium during walking.

DEVICE

conventional 8-figure plate

Conventional 8-figure plate is a widespread device to treat angular deformity of lower limbs with moderate successful rate. The device was designed based on the principle of tension band model. It consists of a plate and two screws (epiphyseal screw and metaphyseal screw).
