Pathological torsions of the femur and tibia are common. The negative effects on the knee are evident and do not only affect the patellofemoral joint. The suspected diagnosis of maltorsion is generated by physical examination and verified by tomographic imaging (MRI or CT).

Objectives: Varus derotation osteotomy (VDRO) is a well-established surgery for displaced hips in children with cerebral palsy (CP). However, avascular necrosis (AVN) remains a significant postoperative complication that can result in negative outcomes. Previous studies report various AVN rates after VDRO, and the true incidence and associated risk factors remain poorly characterized.

Background: In addition to physical disabilities, children with cerebral palsy (CP) often have concomitant nonphysical disabilities and associated medical comorbidities. Verbal disabilities are common and can affect both independence and communication, particularly in hospital settings, potentially impacting surgical outcomes. This study evaluates how verbal status affects postoperative outcomes of proximal femur varus derotational osteotomy (VDRO).

Background: Patellar instability with symptomatic cartilage lesions in young patients is a challenging problem to treat. The use of osteotomies to correct malalignment and fresh osteochondral allograft transplantation (OCA) to address cartilage lesions and patellofemoral dysplasia is a viable treatment option for carefully selected patients.
Indications: The patient is a 22-year-old woman with medial patellar instability caused by iatrogenic distal femoral external rotation and uncontained grade IV patellofemoral lesions.
