Abstract:
A cubitus varus deformity, secondary to a supracondylar fracture, was treated with a short oblique osteotomy and the Ilizarov external fixator. An excellent anatomic and functional outcome resulted. This method may prove to be of significant value in the treatment of this difficult deformity.
