Femoral lengthening might impair physical function and lead to structural changes in adjacent joints: 10 patients with 27 to 34 years’ follow-up

Background and purpose — Literature describing long-term functional outcome and osteoarthritis (OA) in adjacent joints after femoral lengthening is rare. We evaluated physical function and the presence of radiographic OA in adjacent joints in 10 patients ≥ 27 years after femoral lengthening. Patient...
