Corrective osteotomy for cubitus varus in middle-aged patients.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:We reviewed the results of corrective osteotomy for cubitus varus in middle-aged patients to investigate whether it is recommended in this age group. MATERIALS AND METHODS:We studied 20 consecutive patients who underwent 3-dimensional corrective osteotomy at an average age of 47.9 years (range, 41-55 years). The osteotomy was fixed with single plating in 8 patients and with double plating in 12. The average follow-up was 23 months (range, 18-109 months). RESULTS:The average humerus-elbow-wrist angle improved from 21.4° (range, 15°-35°) varus to 8.7° (range, -4°-20°) valgus. Osseous union was radiographically demonstrated in all patients at an average of 17.5 weeks (range, 8-36 weeks). Delayed union of longer than 12 weeks was observed in 15 patients (75%). The average time to union in the single-plating group was 21.0 weeks compared with 15.1 weeks in the double-plating group (P = .012). Failure of fixation occurred in 2 patients who had single plating. The preoperative and postoperative arc of motion was similar. According to Oppenheim criteria, results were excellent in 10, good in 8, and poor in 2. The average final Mayo Elbow Performance Score was 90.3 points (range, 70-100 points). CONCLUSION:Cubitus varus in middle-aged patients can be treated by a closing wedge osteotomy and fixation with double plating. This provides satisfactory deformity correction, maintenance of the elbow motion, and good functional outcome, although healing of the osteotomy tends to be delayed.
