[Corrections of limb deformities in children with Wagner's external fixator].
The authors describe a method of correction of limb deformities whilst allowing the length of the limb segment to be maintained. The apparatus used was the Wagner external fixator which first allows distraction at the site of an osteotomy followed by correction of angulation with suppression of this temporary lengthening.
