Abstract
Progressive hip displacement is one of the most common and debilitating deformities seen in children with cerebral palsy (CP). The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of temporary medial hemiepiphysiodesis of the proximal femur (TMH-PF) using a transphyseal screw to control hip migration during growth in children with CP. This was a retrospective study of children with CP and hip dysplasia, age 4 to 11 years and GMFCS levels III-V. There were 28 patients with 56 hips that underwent TMH-PF surgery between 2007 and 2010. Clinical and radiologic evaluation was performed preoperatively, at 6, 12, and 60 months following the index surgery. Acetabular index (AI), neck-shaft angle (NSA) and migration percentage (MP) were measured. All complications were recorded. All radiographic measurements were significantly improved at the final follow-up. Positive correlations were found between NSA, MP, and AI. Multiple regression analysis revealed that MP, time from surgery, and age were influenced by the decrease of the NSA. The femoral physis grew off the screw in 9 hips within 36 months. The screw head broke during attempted screw exchange in 1 hip. The remain cases (4 hips) were treated by placing a second screw parallel to the ex...Continue Reading
