Indications and techniques of proximal femoral osteotomies in 2026.
Review in EFORT open reviews, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Proximal femoral osteotomy remains an important joint-preserving option for adolescents and young adults with symptomatic proximal femoral deformity, preserved cartilage, and deformity amenable to correction. Surgical hip dislocation provides circumferential access to the femoral head, neck, and acetabulum while preserving the retinacular blood supply, and it allows direct dynamic assessment of impingement together with concomitant treatment of intra-articular pathology. The extended retinacular flap has expanded the indications for intra-articular correction at the femoral neck and head level, enabling larger corrections closer to the deformity with less secondary displacement when compared to extra-articular osteotomies. Preoperative planning must combine standardized radiographs, CT- or MRI-based torsion analysis, and MRI-based cartilage assessment; outcomes depend mainly on cartilage status, patient age, timing of correction, and technical precision.
