  • Title: Current techniques of limb lengthening.
    Author: Paley D.
    Journal: J Pediatr Orthop; 1988; 8(1):73-92. PubMed ID: 3275690.
    Abstract:
    Limb lengthening is still a major procedure with potentially serious complications. It does not, however, deserve the reputation it gained over the last few years. With a proper understanding of the biology, biomechanics, and strategies of lengthening, excellent results can be consistently obtained with relatively few complications.
