- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>The aim of this study is to increase the predictability of these difficult<br /><br>procedures which hopefully result in less pain in combination with better<br /><br>function and cosmetics.<br /><br><br /><br>primary outcome:<br /><br>Improvement of pronation and supination postoperatively.</p><br>
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>secundary outcomes:<br /><br><br /><br>* Reduced pain postoperatively (VAS score).<br /><br>* Better cosmetics postoperatively (VAS score).<br /><br>* Relation between radiological and clinical outcomes.<br /><br>* Accuracy of MRI as a tool of preplanning a corrective osteotomy.<br /><br>* MRI preoperatively to find soft tissue scars<br /><br>* Accuracy of *true angulation* on X-ray compared to CT</p><br>
