Analysis of risk factors for modification of femoral offset after internal fixation of Garden I and II femoral neck fractures.

Background: The concept of restoring the femoral offset is well established during hip replacement surgery, but is less well known when treating Garden I or II femoral neck fractures by internal fixation. And yet, the therapeutic aim for these fractures is to restore this native parameter as best possible. The aim of this study was to identify the risk factors for reduction of femoral offset after union of a Garden I or II femoral neck fracture treated by internal fixation.

Functional and radiological outcome of subtalar arthroereisis for flexible pes planovalgus in children: A retrospective analysis.

Introduction: Pediatric idiopathic pes planovalgus can correct itself with growth. Otherwise, in the event of functional impairment and after failed conservative treatment, surgery can be considered. Based on a multicenter retrospective study, we report the functional and radiographic results obtained after subtalar arthroereisis.
