Effectiveness of supracondylar dome osteotomy in reducing lateral condylar prominence and enhancing functional outcomes in pediatric cubitus varus: a retrospective study
Supracondylar dome osteotomy effectively reduces lateral condylar prominence in cubitus varus, particularly in post-pubertal patients and cases with radiological carrying angles less than 20 degrees. The procedure demonstrates good functional outcomes with acceptable complication rates, making it a viable surgical option for treating cubitus varus deformity.
