The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of percutaneous kirschner wire in management of Congenital Pseudarthrosis of Tibia in children younger than 1 year of age. This study was to determine the union rates of congenital pseudarthrosis in children operated before 1 year of age to identify growth abnormalities in the affected limb ,including ankle valgus,tibia valgus,and shortening.
Currently, the timing of surgery for congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia is a controversial issue. The investigators use percutaneous kirschner wire technique to manage the Congenital Pseudarthrosis of Tibia in children younger than 1 year of age.To investigate the effect of percutaneous kirschner wire in management of Congenital Pseudarthrosis of Tibia in children younger than 1 year of age. Bone uion rate,average time of healing, ankle valgus, limb length discrepancy, tibia axis alignment are recorded and evaluated.

measurement of the angulation of proximal tibia in anterior and posterior (AP )and lateral X ray.Proximal tibial valgus is created by the intersection of a line parallel to the proximal physis and another line along the axis of the proximal third of diaphysis in the tibia. |
| pre-operation and 0.5 , 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 years post-operation ] |
| Residual Deformity-Limb length discrepancy | measurement of the length difference of both tibia in AP and lateral X ray.Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) is used to measure the length of the tibia (The investigators measure the distance between the midpoint of the proximal tibial epiphyseal plate and the midpoint of distal tibia epiphyseal plate). | pre-operation and 0.5 , 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 years post-operation |
| Residual Deformity-ankle valgus angulation(range,0°-90°) | measurement of the angulation between the distal tibia and ankle joint.Ankle valgus is assessed by the tibiotalar angle measured at the intersection of the mid-diaphyseal line of the tibia and a line drawn across the flat subchondral line of the talar dome. | pre-operation and 0.5 , 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 years post-operation |
