Treatment of patients with congenital joints dislocation (Larsen’s syndrome)

Treatment results of 10 patients with Larsen’s syndrome is presented. Step-by-step treatment regimen including closed reduction of hip joint in functional devices for preparation of tendinous-muscular system of the knee joint, closed reduction of ankle joint with transarticular pin fixation and subsequent plaster immobilization is proposed. If cicatrical degeneration of ankle extensors is confirmed and closed reduction of the ankle dislocation failed the open bilateral reduction with lengthening of anterior femur muscles is indicated. Proposed regimen of operative treatment allowed to achieve early and long-term satisfactory functional and cosmetic results in all patients.
