From: Individualized approach to the surgical management of fibrous dysplasia of the proximal femur
The second patient who needed revision surgery (ID 12) was a male with a fracture through a fibrous dysplasia lesion of the proximal femur who was treated with a correction osteotomy and fixation with an angled blade plate in combination with a allogeneic strut graft at the age of fourteen (Fig. 2). He unfortunately sustained a stress fracture distal to the blade plate, 3 years after the initial surgery. The angled blade plate was removed during revision surgery and a long femoral plate was used to stabilize the femoral shaft. The patient was able to walk with crutches and had no more pain complaints. However, his severe coxa vara (FNSA 69°) remained unchanged
