    Journal: Vestn Khir Im I I Grek; 1975 Mar; 114(3):54-8. PubMed ID: 1119031.
    Abstract:
    A one-moment correction of associated defects of the lower extremities was performed in 45 patients. An analysis of treatment of such patients enabled us to elaborate indications to operative interventions concerned and surgical technic. The treatment was terminated in 38 patients. In 33 of them weight-bearing of the extremity was restored by means of ankylosis of the coxa with simultaneous lengthening of the extremity and correction of concomitant deformities. In 3 patients no ankylosis in the joint developed, in two-pseudarthrosis at the site of osteotomized femoral bone was formed.
