Abstract
|
|
|
Since Smith-Petersen described vertebral osteotomy in 1945, many surgeons have treated fixed flexion
deformity of the spine by vertebral osteotomy, and have reported its techniques and results.
Five cases of severe fixed flexion deformity from Marie-Strumpell disease were corrected by vertebral
osteotomy which was done between the upper lumbar spines with autogenous bone graft.
The correction of flexion deformity obtanined ranged from 12 to 34 degrees with an average of 24.2
degrees.
The spines, following the vertebral osteotomy, showed excellent results in all cases, without any spe¡þcific complications.
