Whether a simultaneous radius angular correction is necessary for bowing deformity remains debatable. We aimed to evaluate effectiveness and safety of ulnar lengthening alone in HME children. HME patients with forearm deformity who underwent ulnar lengthening between 2011 and 2016 were included. Patients were divided into two groups: eight juniors (age ≤ 10 years) and six seniors (>10 years). The mean age of two groups was 8.1 ± 2.5 and 16.7 ± 4.4 years, respectively. The juniors underwent ulnar lengthening alone, and the seniors received an additional radial corrective osteotomy. Pre-operative and post-operative parameters of supination, pronation, ulnar variance (UV), radial articular angles (RAA), and carpal slip (CS) were assessed. The juniors rather the seniors had an improvement in supination (p < 0.05 and p = 0.109, respectively). The juniors and seniors improved in pronation (p < 0.05). UV, RAA, and CS were corrected in the seniors (p < 0.05). In the juniors, parameters improved in UV, RAA, and CS (p < 0.05). For HME children, ulnar lengthening alone can restore radiologic anatomy and functions, providing comparable surgical outcomes in cosmetic results and clinical parameters. © 2019 by the authors. |
