Limb axis deformities in children are a common orthopedic problem that can also occur in adolescents and adults. In addition to affecting aesthetics, these deformities lead to serious anatomical and functional disorders. Limb axis abnormalities (such as physiologic valgus and physiologic myelopathy) affect gait, and in the long term can cause degenerative changes in the joints, especially the knees. Problems [...]
Bone transport
Bone transport, also known as osteogenic distraction, is a medical technique used in orthopedics to treat bone defects and lengthen limbs. The procedure involves moving bone fragments to stimulate new bone growth, allowing the bone gap to fill in naturally. Bone segment transport is performed for severe bone defects resulting from trauma, disease, [...]

Developmental defects of the musculoskeletal system
Musculoskeletal malformations in children and adolescents develop insidiously, painlessly and often asymptomatically. Left without early diagnosis and treatment, they worsen with growth and uprightness, subsequently leading to early onset of generative and degenerative changes and eventually to permanent disability. That is why it is so important to detect and then treat any disease of the organ as soon as possible [...]
