Abstract

10 children with cubitus varus deformity after supracondylar fractures were operated on with a supracondylar lateral closing wedge osteotomy. The medial cortical periosteal hinge was left intact and the osteotomy stabilized with two Kirschner wires and a tension-band wire loop. The osteotomies healed within 2 months, without any complications or recurrence of the deformity. The outcome was satisfactory as regards both cosmesis and mobility. © 1996 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved.
