Summary

The authors describe the technique and results obtained by a derotation osteotomy of the tibia in children. The method is simple, reliable and does not require internal fixation. It is suitable for dealing with deformity following poliomyelitis, and may also be used to treat tibial torsion which fails to correct with growth in children who are otherwise healthy.

Résumé

Description de la technique et des résultats d'une ostéotomie de dérotation du tibia chez l'enfant. L'ostéotomie lamellaire est simple, fiable, ne nécessite aucun matériel d'ostéosynthèse. Elle est applicable non seulement aux enfants présentant des séquelles de poliomyélite, mais également aux quelques enfants neurologiquement sains présentant des vices de torsion tibiale, qui ne se sont pas corrigés spontanément avec la croissance.
