Abstract |
Pros and cons of different modes of leg length discrepancy management are briefly discussed. Results of surgical treatment of 35 patients have been analysed. The most frequently employed technique has been presented in details. Its simplicity, fast bony union, few complication and possibility to avoid additional immobilisation make this method a valuable alternative for lower extremities equalization.
