1 5/19/2014 Malicious Malalignment J. Eric Gordon M.D. Washington University St. Louis, Missouri Disclosures: Consultant for Orthopediatrics Malicious/Malignant malalignment Increased femoral anteversion External tibial torsion Presents with knee pain Parents describe odd run Rotation creates sheer across knee joint leading to pain Malicious/Malignant malalignment Often diagnosed as anterior knee pain (chondromalacia, patello-femoral pain) Most often does not respond to physical therapy Present between ages of

2 5/19/2014 Malicious/Malignant malalignment Gait shows feet usually straight ahead Knees turned in When running, legs come up laterally with knees turned in Sometimes also complain of hip or ankle pain Malicious/Malignant malalignment Treatment Physical therapy rarely successful Surgery Derotate Femur Derotate tibia Placement through lateral aspect of greater trochanter Avoid tip of trochanter entry 2

3 5/19/2014 To OR for bilateral femoral derotational osteotomies First, 5mm incision made in lateral thigh Multiple perforations made in femur using 4.5mm drill bit Technique Arc C- arm over to obtain true AP of hip Proximal fragment tends to externall y rotate Technique Place guide pin on skin pointed toward middle of greater trochanter Trajectory should be toward bottom of lesser trochanter Aim slightly anterior 3

4 5/19/2014 Technique Push guide pin through skin to middle of greater trochanter Trajectory should be toward bottom of lesser trochanter Drive in until against medial femur Technique Possibly most important step Avoid being too transverse with this entry This will cause too much bend in guide wire and difficulty reaming Also check on lateral Technique Incise skin proximally Place soft tissue protector over guide pin 4

5 5/19/2014 Technique Insert rigid reamer through soft tissue protector Drive reamer into canal Technique Remove rigid reamer using obturator to leave guide pin in place Technique Place small tube over guide pin into canal of femur 5

6 5/19/2014 Technique Remove guide pin Leave small exchange tube in place Technique Place Ball tipped guide wire Drive down canal Rigid reamer passed into canal Ball tip guide wire then passed into canal down to 1cm proximal to physis 30cm nail measured Reaming with flexible reamer 9.0mm Second pass with 9.5mm reamer 8.0mm nail selected 6

7 5/19/2014 Exchange tube used to change to 2mm smooth, non ball tip guide wire Nail mounted and passed to osteotomy site Osteotomy completed Technique Use nail measuring gauge to measure length of nail Technique Place soft tissue protector again and begin reaming Usually start at 8-9mm Usually no need to use very small reamers Ream down to bend in guide wire 7

8 5/19/2014 Technique Ream to 1.5 to 2.0mm larger than proposed nail diameter Place flexible exchange tube past fracture site Remove ball tip guide wire Technique Place smooth guide wire Remove tube Place Nail Technique Do not rotate inserter anteriorly 8

9 5/19/2014 Technique Drive nail past fracture site Technique Remove guide wire Technique Impact nail into distal femur Look for junction of nail with inserter proximally 9

10 5/19/2014 Nail then impacted down canal Locking proximally carried out using a single screw Femur then derotated Nail distally Interlocked Proximal guide removed Wounds closed Repeated for contralateral side Allowed WBAT Most patients do transfers to wheelchair for 3 weeks 10

11 5/19/2014 Returns 4 weeks Post op Walking short distances Minimal discomfort Returns 7 weeks Post op Walking well with mild limp No pain Rotation IR - 40 ER - 60 Foot progression angle 5 ER Tibial Torsion 11

12 5/19/2014 Correction of tibial torsion Malicious malalignment associated with external tibial torsion Distal derotational osteotomy Should be metaphyseal not diaphyseal Stabilization by: K-wires Plate/screws Locking plate/screws Controversies Fixation type Fibular osteotomy If done should be done through separate lateral incision Complications Nonunion Skin breakdown Infection Superficial Deep Neurovascular injury 12

13 5/19/2014 Complications K-Wires Advantages Inexpensive Simple Disadvantages Often LLC Minimal control Plate Advantages Increased stability Often SLC or CAM walker Disadvantages More expensive Medial Approach Straight medial incision Technique - Approach Avoid Saphenous vein Avoid developing flaps Subperiosteal dissection Extend down to but not into physis medially Anterior Approach Interval between TA and EHL Avoid NV bundle lateral to EHL Subperiosteal dissection Avoid tension on skin edges Technique - Approach Tibialis Anterior Extensor Halicus Longus 13

14 5/19/2014 Retractors placed to protect structures Osteotomy started with saw and completed with osteotome or saw Osteotomy perpendicular to long axis of tibia JE Gordon Washington University St. Louis Secure plate proximally to tibia (locking and nonlocking screws) Derotate tibia Thigh foot ankle with knee flexed and foot in neutral Place distal screws 3 or 4 locking Recheck alignment JE Gordon Washington University St. Louis Similar for anterior plates JE Gordon Washington University St. Louis 14

15 5/19/2014 Cast or CAM Walker placed after closure NWB for 3 weeks Then return for radiographs After 3 weeks WBAT in cast or CAM walker JE Gordon Washington University St. Louis Returns 6 weeks PO Allowed WBAT out of immobilizatio n Begin PT for ROM and strengthening Radiographs at 12 weeks JE Gordon Washington University St. Louis I tend to combine osteotomies and do as much at one sitting as possible 4 bones OK JE Gordon Washington University St. Louis 15
