Sonographische Verlaufskontrollen von Verlängerungsosteotomien

Abstract
We report about the possibilities of sonography with regard to postoperative control of limb-lengthening. During the phase of distraction we can show the amount of lengthening with a 5 or 3,5 MHZ linear transducer. We can measure the lengthening or the axial deviation with a sonography as exactly as with an x-ray. X-rays can be saved and the x-ray dosis can be reduced.
