Abstract
Objective: To present clinical and surgical procedures for the treatment of genu varum knees in patients with Achondroplasia. Methods: A bibliographic survey was carried out from 1995 to 2020 on the SciElo, Lilacs, Medline, Google Scholar and Pubmed platforms to select articles. After reading the abstracts and analyzing the most relevant projects that addressed the general topic, the articles were tabulated according to author; theme; year; magazine; objective and main results. Results: The 5 selected articles were organized in chronological order, presenting the approaches carried out in each study, among the results each conduct can be observed, highlighting the osteotomy accompanied by the tightening of the lateral collateral ligament and the planned fibular non-union, in addition to the use of arthrography as a form of complementary examination. Final considerations: From the results obtained, it is concluded that in addition to the traditional forms of intervention for varus knees in patients with achondroplasia, there is scientific evidence of the existence of alternative ways of resolving bones in these patients, aiming at the patients' quality of life.
