Aim of correction	IRF				TSF
	n	Mean	SD	Range	n	Mean	SD	Range
Lengthening	79	4.9	2.3	0–10	129	2.7	1.9	0–7,8
Frontal plane	43	14.5°	10.9	2°–53°	108	11.3°	7.9	2°–48°
Sagittal plane	21	24.5°	14.6	4°–50°	23	13.4°	6.2	5°–28°
Rotational plane	2	15.0°	7.1	10°–20°	47	16.4°	7.8	6°–40°

Leg lengthening (LL) was measured in centimeter and axial deviation was measured in degrees
