Long-term results of valgus osteotomy for congenital coxa vara.
Clinical Orthopaedics and related Research 1993 September
Twenty hips (12 patients) with congenital coxa vara, treated with valgus subtrochanteric osteotomy, were reviewed retrospectively. The average Hilgenreiner-epiphyseal (HE) and head-shaft (HS) angles at the initial evaluation were 66 degrees and 96 degrees, respectively. The average postoperative follow-up time was 20 years. Five of the 12 hips with trochanteric overgrowth had abductor weakness. A postoperative HE angle of 35 degrees or less and a HS angle of 130 degrees or more was correlated with consistently satisfactory results.
