Objective: Temporary hemiepiphysiodesis (TH) is a very common technique for coronal angular deformity of the knee in children, especially non-idiopathic. However, there is currently a dearth of comparative research on the hinge eight-plate (HEP) and traditional eight-plate (TEP). This study aimed to assess the clinical effectiveness and implant-related complication rates of TH using TEP and HEP for non-idiopathic coronal angular deformity, as well as to identify clinical factors affecting correction velocity.

- The study evaluates the effectiveness of CT versus MRI in diagnosing intra-articular osteochondral fractures in children who experienced acute traumatic lateral patellar dislocation.
- It compares the diagnostic accuracy of these imaging techniques, particularly focusing on the insights of pediatric orthopedic surgeons (POS) versus radiologists in interpreting the results.
- Findings indicate that while both imaging methods are similarly accurate overall, CT showed higher specificity and sensitivity in detecting certain fractures, particularly when combined with clinical data.
