文摘In children with asymmetric growth on the medial and lateral side of limbs,if there still remains growth potential,the guided growth technique of hemiepiphysiodesis on one side of the epiphysis is recognized as a safe and effective method.However,when the hemi-epiphysiodesis start to correct the deformities,how many degrees could hemi-epiphysiodesis bring every month and when to remove the hemi-epiphysiodesis implant without rebound phenomenon are still on debate.This article reviews the current studies focus on the effective time,correction speed and termination time of hemi-epiphysiodesis.
