Title: | Epiphyseal plate repair using fat interposition to reverse physeal deformity : an experimental study |
Author: | Foster, Bruce Kristian |
Issue Date: | 1989 |
School/Discipline: | Dept. of Pathology |
Abstract: | Hypothesises that the physis has an internal mechanism of repair to restore physeal function. Aims to establish a defined degree of deformity by partial growth plate excision, then to examine different methods of reversal of such deformity to observe the process of growth plate repair. A secondary aim was to define the percentage of physis that could be resected yet still enable reversal of deformity. |
