Abstract

|
|
|
Clinical symptoms of fibrous dysplasia in proximal femur include pain, limping, and leglength discrepancy. Occasionally varus deformity, which may range from mild coxa vara to a marked shepherd´s crook deformity was developed. Surgical intervention generally is considered advisable in the presence of persistent pain unresponsive to conservative treatment of significant or progressive deformity. Depending on the lesion size, lesion site, and deformity, several treatment methods have been used. This is a report on one case of bilateral shepherd´s crook deformity in fibrous dysplasia, which was treated with corrective osteotomy by Huckstep nail.
