Influence of tension-band plates on the mechanical loading of the femoral growth plate during guided growth due to coronal plane deformities
Introduction: Correction of knee malalignment by guided growth using a tension-band plate is a common therapy to prevent knee osteoarthritis among other things. This approach is based on the Hueter-Volkmann law stating that the length growth of bones is inhibited by compression and stimulated by ten...
