Abstract:
:We treated 19 patients with piriformis muscle syndrome. All patients complained of pain in the buttocks and the posterior thigh. Clinically the buttock was tender and passive stretching increased the pain. In ten patients skin sensation was reduced and three had a limp. All patients were treated with tenotomy. At follow-up after an average of 8 (1-16) years, eight patients had pain relief. Two-thirds of the patients evaluated their clinical state as being better.

杂志文章abstract::A technique of oblique tibial osteotomy is described which is effective in correcting varus and medial rotational deformities in young children. The oblique cut in one plane corrects both elements of the deformity at the same time. We have used the method on both legs in four children and satisfactory results were obt...
