Cubitus varus is the most common complications of supracondylar fractures. Various combinations of osteotomy and fixation have been described to correct the deformity but each is associated with significant complications. In this study, we used distraction osteogenesis and Ilizarov frame fixation to treat 12 elbows with cubitus varus. The mean time to follow up was 24 months (10-38) and the mean time to frame removed was 14.5 weeks (10-22). The mean carrying angle was corrected from -19.8°(-10°-32°) to 6.2°(2°-12°). In patients with cubitus varus was from 35.5° (22°-45°). There were 11 excellent and one good result. |
