Correction of Simple and Complex Pediatric Deformities Using the Taylor-Spatial Frame

Abstract

We demonstrate its ease of use for both surgeon and patient and its versatility in a variety of pathologies. The advantages of the TSF system are many. It is a simple frame construct, and application is easy. The plan and execution are structured with precise end points; it is a single-stage correction and thus avoids frame modifications. Any residual deformity can be further corrected by use of the same frame. We conclude that the TSF is an effective and efficient way to correct a wide variety of simple and complex often obstinate pediatric limb deformities.
