Abstract

A case of Ollier disease with deformity and shortening of the humerus is presented. Lengthening of 9 cm and deformity correction of 50° was accomplished with excellent functional and cosmetic results. Unique features of this case were the use of a multiaxial correction (MAC) monolateral frame (EBI, Parsippany, NJ) and the formation of normal bone within the region of the diseased Ollier bone.
