Abstract：
:Limb-length inequality is a clinical problem in children with hypertrophy associated with vascular malformations. The purpose of this study was to determine a pattern of growth, predict discrepancy at maturity, and evaluate the timing and results of epiphysiodesis. Hypertrophy with vascular malformation, follow-up from childhood until maturity, annual physical examination, and annual orthoroentgenograms and anteroposterior left hand-wrist radiographs were the inclusion criteria. The developmental pattern of the growth discrepancy was established. Limb-length discrepancy and remaining growth were calculated. All 3 patients underwent distal femur or proximal tibia and fibula percutaneous epiphysiodesis. All cases showed the constant upward slope of the developmental pattern of discrepancy until the time of epiphysiodesis. The length of the uninvolved limb at maturity corresponded to the length predicted by the methods that used skeletal age, allowing calculation of the proper timing for epiphysiodesis. The multiplier and the rule of thumb methods failed, with skeletal age not corresponding to chronological age. In these 3 cases, limb-length discrepancy was successfully treated with percutaneous epiphysiodesis, and there were no complications. [Orthopedics. 2018; 41(4):e574-e579.].
