    Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics · Jul 13 2026 · PubMed

    Double-pin versus single-pin calcaneocuboid joint fixation during calcaneal lengthening for pediatric flatfoot showed better maintenance of calcaneal pitch at 2 years but similar subluxation prevention.

  3. Treatment of Lenke 5 curves with short versus long posterior fusion.

    Spine Deformity · Jul 09 2026 · PubMed

    Lenke 5 adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients treated with short or long fusion both achieved significant curve correction and improved outcomes without differences between groups.

Recent reviews

  1. Hip surveillance in children with cerebral palsy in the UK : history, challenges, and future directions.

    The Bone & Joint Journal · Jul 01 2025 · PubMed

    Hip surveillance programs identify hip migration early in cerebral palsy patients, reducing dislocation incidence and preventing salvage surgery while improving quality of life.
