BACKGROUND: Percutaneous epiphysiodesis using a transphyseal screw (PETS) or tension-band plating (TBP) has shown favourable correction results; however, the physeal behaviours in terms of rebound, stable correction, or overcorrection after guided growth have not been completely understood. In patients with idiopathic genu valgum, we therefore asked: (1) How is the correction maintained after implant removal of guided growth? (2) Is there any difference in the natural behaviours after PETS or TBP removal at the femur and tibia?
METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 73 skeletally immature limbs with idiopathic genu valgum treated with PETS or TBP. PETS was performed in 23 distal femurs and 13 proximal tibias, and TBP was performed in 27 distal femurs and ten proximal tibias. Mechanical axis deviation (MAD), mechanical lateral distal femoral angle (mLDFA), and mechanical medial proximal tibial angle were measured at pre-correction, implant removal, and final follow-up. Changes of ≤ 3° in mechanical angles after implant removal were considered stable. Comparisons between the implant, anatomical site, and existence of rebound were performed.
RESULTS: The mean MAD improved from - 18.8 mm to 11.3 mm at implant removal and decreased to -0.2 mm at the final follow-up. At the final follow-up, 39 limbs (53.4%) remained stable and only 12 (16.4%) were overcorrected. However, 22 limbs (30.1%) showed rebound. TBP was more common, and the correction period was longer in the rebound group (p < 0.001 and 0.013, respectively). In femurs treated with PETS, the mean mLDFA increased from 86.9° at implant removal to 88.4° at the final follow-up (p = 0.031), demonstrating overcorrection. However, a significant rebound from 89.7° to 87.1° was noted at the femur in the TBP group (p < 0.001). The correction of the proximal tibia did not change after implant removal.
CONCLUSION: The rebound was more common than overcorrection after guided growth; however, approximately half the cases demonstrated stable correction. The overcorrection occurred after PETS in the distal femur, while cases with TBP had a higher probability of rebound. The proximal tibia was stable after implant removal. The subsequent physeal behaviours after each implant removal should be considered in the guided growth.
