[Surgical treatment of Osgood-Schlatter disease].
18 patients (20 knee joints) were operated for Osgood-Schlatter disease. 12 patients (14 knee joints) had a follow-up of 2.4 years (0.5-13.5) after operation. The informations of the other patients were taken from our clinical data. 1 month (0.5-24) after operation 13 patients (15 knee joints) were painfree. In 5 cases there were still complaints, but 3 of them were improved by operation. One patient, who was operated on both knees, had no change after operation. The failures are analysed and interpreted concerning their pathogenesis. With help of our results the different operation methods of the literature are discussed.
