  • Title: Chiari's osteotomy. A note on technique.
    Author: Fernandez DL, Isler B, Müller ME.
    Journal: Clin Orthop Relat Res; 1984 May; (185):53-8. PubMed ID: 6705399.
    Abstract:
    Direct joint distraction of the hip facilitates the performance of Chiari's osteotomy on a standard operating table as opposed to the classic procedure on the traction table. Some useful modifications of the original technique include a guide wire to control the direction of the osteotomy, insertion of an additional bone graft to provide better anterior coverage of the head, and internal fixation of the osteotomy.
