[A trial of ultrasonographic use for evaluating leg lengthening].
Modified de Bastiani method of callotasis with Wagner apparatus was used as a lengthening procedure of 4 femurs and 1 tibia. The ultrasonography was applied to measure the degree of distraction, to determine the eventual axial deviation of the bone ends and to follow up the callus formation in the gap. The obtained results were compared with radiography.
