Significats de osteochondritis of the tibial tubercle en anglès

My doctor said I have Osgood-Schlatter disease.

Osgood-Schlatter disease is inflammation of the bone and cartilage at the top of the tibia or shin bone.

The small angle in Osgood-Schlatter disease is proposed to be an important factor in the pathogenesis of the traction apophysitis.

(Teddy himself said later that he'd thought it was Osgood-Schlatter disease, a common affliction to fast-growing young knees that several of his classmates had experienced.)

Only in limited cases, an additional tibial tuberosity transfer is needed.

Operative treatment was thought necessary for all our cases due to tibial tuberosity displacement.

Avulsion of the tibial tuberosity is a rarely reported fracture.

In two cases, an additional tibial tuberosity transfer was performed, due to insufficient per-operative correction.

Surgical treatment of habitual patella dislocation with medialisation of the tibial tuberosity led to an excellent clinical outcome.
