Background

Ilizarov hip reconstruction is a salvage option traditionally done with fixators, which often face limited compliance. We aimed at reviewing our early results of a novel technique with internal devices.

Material and Methods

Retrospective evaluation of 7 patients was done that underwent Milch Batchelor procedure with dual plates followed by a second stage femoral lengthening by retrograde magnetic nail. The mean patient age was 13.8 years. A mean valgus of 410 (range, 300 to 550) and extension of 220 (range, 100 to 300) were created proximally.
