摘要
Congenital dislocation of the knee (CDK) is not a common condition, and in most cases, reduction is performed by closed methods. We present two children with CDK who were refractory to conservative treatment. Surgical reduction was performed, and quadriceps lengthening was done by VY plasty in one and Z plasty in the other. At operation, it was difficult to identify the different muscle groups. Abnormal fibrous tissue was present in both the cases beneath the contracted quadriceps, which required complete excision. The child with Z plasty to lengthen the quadriceps had better range of motion in the knee than did the one with VY plasty. © Springer-Verlag 2004.
