Controlling Femoral Derotation Osteotomy In Cerebral Palsy With Electromagnetic Tracking

The study is designed to evaluate the use of electromagnetic tracking in transversal plane femoral derotation osteotomies. The goal is to raise the precision of the surgical procedure in order to improve the outcome in short- and long term. All patients are examined with an instrumented 3D gait analysis pre- and one year postoperatively. The electromagnetic tracking system is evaluated against a base line CT or MRI scan serving as reference standard pre- and postoperatively.
