Osteotomy

Osteotomy is a surgical procedure in which a bone is cut to realign it or correct a deformity. This operation is widely used in orthopedics and traumatology to treat various diseases and bone injuries.

Osteotomy can be performed on one bone or on several. Depending on the purpose of the operation, various osteotomy methods can be used, such as transverse, longitudinal, angular, etc.

One of the main advantages of osteotomy is the ability to correct bone deformities that cannot be corrected by other methods. For example, an osteotomy can help correct a curvature of the spine or deformation of the bones of the foot.

However, like any other operation, osteotomy has its risks and complications. The most common are infectious complications, bleeding, bone fractures and others. Therefore, before performing an osteotomy, it is necessary to carefully assess all possible risks and choose the optimal surgical method.

Overall, osteotomy is an effective treatment for many bone diseases and can significantly improve the quality of life of patients. However, before performing it, it is necessary to conduct a thorough examination and select the optimal osteotomy method.



Osteotomy is a surgical procedure in which a cut (osteotomy) is made in the bone to correct deformities or perform some other task. This procedure is one of the ways to treat complex bone deformities and dysfunction of the musculoskeletal system.

This operation is used in orthopedics, traumatology and some other medical fields. Most often, osteotomy is used to correct spinal deformities and to speed up its healing after surgery. At the same time, it is also applicable in traumatological practice and can be used to eliminate some damage to the musculoskeletal system. A variation of this procedure is an operation in which one bone is cut and the other is fixed to make it possible for them to heal in the correct position, for example, if after a fracture one of the bones does not fall into place or the muscles or ligaments of any area are pinched. Often used in conjunction with other surgical methods. One of the important stages of osteotomy interventions
