This study details the successful removal of a tibial bone bar using an Ilizarov device, correcting varus deformity. The correction was maintained at two years with continued bone growth.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Pediatric orthopedics
  • Limb deformity correction

Background:

  • Epiphyseolysis can lead to bone bar formation, causing growth disturbances and deformities like varus.
  • The Ilizarov device is a common external fixator for limb lengthening and deformity correction.

Observation:

  • A centrally located bone bar in the lower tibia was surgically removed after epiphyseolysis.
  • The bone bridge was successfully detached from the metaphysis.
  • Methylmethacrylate was utilized as an interpositional material during the procedure.

Findings:

  • Correction of the varus deformity was achieved at the epiphyseolysis site.
  • At the 2-year follow-up, sustained correction of the varus deformity was observed.
  • Evidence of continued bone growth was present at the surgical site.

Implications:

  • This technique offers a viable option for managing tibial bone bar-induced deformities.
  • Successful interpositional material use supports bone growth and deformity maintenance.
  • Further research can explore long-term outcomes and variations in managing epiphyseolysis complications.
