Abstract
Partial growth plate arrest caused by trauma may lead to severe deformity and dysfunction. The Langenskiöld method is a surgical technique that involves resection of the physeal bar causing partial growth plate arrest. However, it is a technically demanding procedure. We used the Langenskiöld method under guidance with a navigation system and endoscopy and obtained good results in 2 cases. We consider that use of these tools can be a helpful adjunct to the carrying out this procedure.
