Rheovasography was applied for the evaluation of blood circulation in the femur and crus before and after restoration of lower extremity length. There were 51 children, aged 5—18, with acquired pathology of proximal (39 patients) and distal (12 patients) metaepiphysis of femur. Positive dynamics in regional blood circulation was noted both in proximal and distal extremity segments at 1—5 years follow up after lengthening
