Angular deformities of the distal femur occur in congenital diseases or due to acquired causes, such as malunion after a fracture of the distal femur. Angular deformities of the lower extremities affect the mechanical axis, causing changes in the weight pressure on the articular surface. As a result, angular deformities quicken the progression of osteoarthritis. Therefore, correction of deformities should be performed to prevent the progression of osteoarthritis. Distal femoral osteotomy is one of the methods to correct angular deformities in unicompartmental osteoarthritis. However, femoral supracondylar dome osteotomy with retrograde intramedullary nailing in the distal femur with a varus deformity has been rarely reported. Herein, we describe a technique for femoral supracondylar dome osteotomy with retrograde intramedullary nailing in a varus deformity after a pathologic fracture of giant cell tumor in the distal femur with a review of the relevant literature.
Abstract
Angular deformities of the distal femur occur in congenital diseases or due to acquired causes, such as malunion after a fracture of the distal femur.

As a result, angular deformities quicken the progression of osteoarthritis. Therefore, correction of deformities should be performed to prevent the progression of osteoarthritis. Distal femoral osteotomy is one of the methods to correct angular deformities in unicompartmental osteoarthritis. However, femoral supracondylar dome osteotomy with retrograde intramedullary nailing in the distal femur with a varus deformity has been rarely reported. Herein, we describe a technique for femoral supracondylar dome osteotomy with retrograde intramedullary nailing in a varus deformity after a pathologic fracture of giant cell tumor in the distal femur with a review of the relevant literature.
