A simple distraction device for finger lengthening.

A simple, light distraction device was developed for digital lengthening. Materials for this device are one piece of 1.5-mm K-wire, two five-hole miniplates, one one-hole miniplate, two bolts and nuts, and a nonabsorbable suture or surgical wire. These components are easily obtainable, and the device can be assembled easily for each patient during surgery. The principle of distraction using this device is unique: A distal bone segment is pulled straight forward by a suture or surgical wire. This minimizes scar formation on the finger. Finger elongation using commercially available distraction devices needs two transfixations of K-wires, two each for the proximal and distal bone segments, which create scars where the K-wires move. The authors report a clinical application in which their distraction device was used.

Correction of genu recurvatum secondary to Osgood-Schlatter disease: a case report.

Complications secondary to Osgood-Schlatter disease are rare, and there have been few reports on their treatment. Partial growth arrest of the proximal tibial physis as a result of Osgood-Schlatter disease has been infrequently described. Genu recurvatum from partial physeal arrest can cause cosmetic deformity, instability, pain, and weakness. We report a case of genu recurvatum secondary to Osgood-Schlatter disease treated successfully with proximal tibial osteotomy and distraction with a Taylor spatial frame.

Tooth-borne distraction of the mandible. An experimental study.

Two mini-pigs and 6 micropigs were fitted with a dentally fixed device for osteodistraction of the mandible. Following bilateral osteotomy and after a latency period of 7 days, the apparatus was activated 1 mm per day. A 9 mm lengthening of the mandible was achieved. After a retention period of 6 weeks, the device was removed followed by a consolidation period of 6 weeks. During the experiment, the callus and bone formation and potential dental and periodontal reactions were radiologically examined. Polychrome sequential labelling was performed by injecting calcein green and xylenol orange for histological assessment of bone. The animals were killed at the 14th postoperative week and the area of distraction and the roots of the adjacent teeth were histologically studied. After 12 weeks, the osteogenesis in the distraction gap was complete, showing lamellar bone. No detrimental effects at the roots or in the periodontium of the adjacent teeth were seen. Thus, lengthening or widening of the mandible using a tooth-borne distraction device seems feasible in selected cases.

[The results of using a compression-distraction method for eliminating mandibular defects and deformities].

Intraoral supraosseous compression-distraction devices (CDA) have been used for repair of mandibular underdevelopment and defects of different etiology at Central Institute of Stomatology since 1997. The distraction regenerates have been examined by ultrasonography, roentgenography, and echo-osteometry. These methods allow timely correction of the course of distraction and rule out formation of wrong hypotrophic distraction regenerates.
