Radiographic Outcomes of Hemiepiphyseal Stapling for Distal Radius Deformity Due to Multiple Hereditary Exostoses

摘要

Background: Multiple hereditary exostoses (MHE) affect the distal forearm in 30% to 60% of patients with this condition. Many surgical interventions have been described, but treatment is controversial. We present the radiographic results of low risk, minimally invasive hemiepiphyseal stapling of the distal radius to correct the joint angulation caused by MHE through growth modulation.
