Content
"Metaphyseal Diaphyseal Junction" or "MDJ" refers to an area of a long bone between the Metaphysis and the Diaphysis. This area can also include or be referred to as the epiphyseal plate (growth) plate. For certain surgical procedures, performing an osteotomy at or near the metaphyseal diaphyseal junction may be advantageous and desirable to promote rapid fusion of two cut faces formed in the osteotomy and bone growth to close the osteotomy, and / or may mitigate the risk of a nonunion of the osteotomy.
