Some key areas we specialize in

Congenital Deformities

We have extensive experience in treating congenital deformities, such as clubfoot, limb length discrepancy, hip dysplasia, and hand deformities. Our approach focuses on early intervention, utilizing both non-surgical and surgical techniques to achieve optimal outcomes.

Acquired Deformities

Whether due to injury, disease, or previous surgical interventions, acquired deformities can significantly impact an individual’s quality of life. We specialize in addressing acquired deformities of the limbs, spine, and joints, employing advanced techniques such as osteotomy, limb lengthening, and joint reconstruction.

Post-Traumatic Deformities

Traumatic injuries can result in deformities that affect both function and appearance. Our team is skilled in managing post-traumatic deformities, including fractures, malunions, and nonunions. We employ state-of-the-art surgical techniques and utilize cutting-edge technologies like computer-assisted navigation to achieve accurate and precise corrections.

Limb Lengthening and Reconstruction

We offer specialized expertise in limb lengthening and limb reconstruction procedures. Using both external fixation devices and internal devices, we can correct limb length discrepancies and deformities, enhancing symmetry and function.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of deformities can be corrected through deformity correction?

Deformity correction can address a wide range of conditions, including limb length discrepancies, clubfoot, scoliosis, hip dysplasia, hand and foot deformities, angular limb deformities, post-traumatic deformities, and more.

Will deformity correction always require surgery?

No, not all deformity corrections require surgery. Mild deformities or those in early stages may respond well to non-surgical interventions such as physical therapy, bracing, or orthotic devices. However, more severe or complex deformities may require surgical intervention to achieve optimal results.

What is the recovery process like after deformity correction surgery?

Recovery varies depending on the type and extent of the surgery. It typically involves a period of immobilization, followed by rehabilitation and physical therapy to restore strength, flexibility, and function. Our orthopedic team will provide specific post-operative instructions and a personalized rehabilitation plan to support your recovery.

Are there any risks or complications associated with deformity correction surgery?

Like any surgical procedure, there are potential risks and complications associated with deformity correction surgery. These may include infection, bleeding, nerve damage, blood clots, poor wound healing, and risks associated with anesthesia. Your surgeon will discuss these potential risks with you beforehand and take necessary precautions to minimize them.

Can deformity correction improve the appearance of a deformity?

Yes, deformity correction can often improve the appearance of a deformity, in addition to addressing functional issues. By realigning the affected structures, restoring symmetry, and improving overall balance, the surgery can enhance the aesthetic appearance of the treated area.

How long does the deformity correction process take?

The duration of the deformity correction process depends on several factors, including the complexity of the deformity, the chosen treatment approach, and individual healing rates. It may involve multiple stages or surgeries, followed by a period of rehabilitation. Your orthopedic specialist will provide a timeline based on your specific case.
