What this Trial Is About
By using radiostereometric analysis (RSA) we will be able to study growth during and after temporary epiphysiodesis and with great accuracy be able to detect asymmetric growth following this procedure. By using the same method we also want to analyse patients with axial deviations operated with guided growth (tension band plating) to study the growth during and after the procedure and be able to set the correct timing for removal of the implant.
