Between 1987 and 1993, six boys who had been predicted to grown to an excessive height were treated with bilateral Phemister epiphysiodesis around the knee. Median predicted adult height was 210.4c (range: 207.4-213.4 c), the median observed adult height was 201.5 c (range: 195.5-206.7 c). Median height reduction was 9.3 c (range: 4.1-15.3 c). Median length of follow-up was 44 months (range: 21-84 months). At final follow-up, all patients had full range of motion, no infections, no pain, no angular deformities, equal leg lengths, and radiographic evidence of physeal closure. Bilateral Phemister epiphysiodesis around the knee is a good alternative to pharmacological treatment for boys with excessive height.
1987年至1993年间，对6名预计会过度长高的男孩进行了双侧膝关节周围的菲米斯特骨骺阻滞术治疗。预测的成人身高中位数为210.4厘米（范围：207.4 - 213.4厘米），观察到的成人身高中位数为201.5厘米（范围：195.5 - 206.7厘米）。身高降低中位数为9.3厘米（范围：4.1 - 15.3厘米）。随访时间中位数为44个月（范围：21 - 84个月）。在最后一次随访时，所有患者均具有全范围活动度，无感染、无疼痛、无角状畸形、双腿长度相等，且有骨骺闭合的影像学证据。对于身高过高的男孩，双侧膝关节周围的菲米斯特骨骺阻滞术是药物治疗的一个良好替代方法。
