AB  - No large multicentre studies have yet been published on tension-band-like 
      implants such as the Eight Plate to treat limb-length discrepancies and varus 
      valgus deformities in children. Therefore, we carried out a retrospective 
      international multicentre study including 126 patients to assess outcomes and to 
      reliably quantify the incidence of implant-related and growth-plate related 
      adverse events (AEs). Correction was achieved in 66% of varus valgus deformities 
      and in 59% of limb-length discrepancies and maintained in 85%. Twenty (18%) 
      patients experienced 43 AEs, which were primarily screw-related. The AE rate of 
      the Eight Plate is low; however, many of them could be avoided through tighter 
      monitoring.
