The impact of humeral rodding on functional ability in children with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) has not previously been reported. This article investigates this issue.
A retrospective chart review was conducted on 35 children with OI who underwent humeral rodding at our institution between 1995 and 2013. Fassier-Duval rods were inserted in 19 cases, K-wires in 13 cases, and Rush rods in 3 cases. Functional ability was assessed preoperatively and every year postoperatively using the self-care and mobility domains of the Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory (PEDI).
The mean PEDI self-care score increased by 5.7 (P=0.028) and the mean PEDI mobility score increased by 3.6 (P=0.008) at 1-year postsurgery. Improved function was maintained in the majority of cases at a mean of 7.0 years postcorrection.
Humeral rodding in children with OI leads to significant improvement in functional ability.

肱骨内固定对成骨不全(OI)患儿功能能力的影响此前尚未见报道。本文对这一问题进行研究。
对1995年至2013年间在本机构接受肱骨内固定的35例OI患儿进行回顾性病历审查。其中19例植入法西耶 - 杜瓦尔棒,13例植入克氏针,3例植入拉什棒。术前及术后每年使用儿童残疾评定量表(PEDI)的自我照顾和移动领域对功能能力进行评估。
术后1年,PEDI自我照顾平均得分提高5.7(P = 0.028),PEDI移动平均得分提高3.6(P = 0.008)。大多数病例在矫正后平均7.0年功能持续改善。
OI患儿肱骨内固定可显著改善功能能力。
