tension band platesAchondroplasia is the most common form of rhizomelic dwarfism. Aside from disproportionally short extremities, frontal knee malalignments are common. We assessed the effectiveness of guided growth via tension band plates in children with achondroplasia in comparison to patients with ...

Longitudinal bone growth in children is sustained by growth plates, narrow discs of cartilage that provide a continuous supply of chondrocytes for endochondral ossification. However, it remains unknown how this supply is maintained throughout childhood growth. Chondroprogenitors in the resting zone are ...
