Case Report: Corrective Osteotomy and Stabilization for Tibial Reconstruction in an Adolescent with Osteogenesis Imperfecta
Abstract: This case report presents the surgical management of a 12-year-old male diagnosed with Osteogenesis Imperfecta Type IV, exhibiting anterior tibial bowing and limb shortening. A corrective osteotomy combined with intramedullary stabilization using Titanium Elastic Nails (TENS) was performed to address the deformity. Postoperative recovery showed satisfactory alignment, progressive weight-bearing, and restored mobility. The case underscores the clinical feasibility and cost-effectiveness of TENS in resource-limited settings, highlighting its role in pediatric deformity correction where advanced devices may not be accessible.
