pubmed:abstractText |
The Ilizarov technique is commonly used for lengthening and deformity corrections of the lower limbs in children. Postoperative pain can be significant, affecting quality of life and functional mobility, and often requiring prolonged medication use. Several studies have investigated the antinociceptive actions of botulinum toxin type A (BtX-A), yet evidence for its use in this population is limited. The objectives were to (1) establish the feasibility of a randomized clinical trial in children undergoing limb lengthening or deformity correction and (2) provide preliminary evidence of the beneficial effects of BtX-A in this population.
