Osteotomy Corrective Segmental

Osteotomy (osteotomia; Greek osteon bone + tome cut, dissection) is a surgical operation in which a bone is cut to correct its shape or size.

Osteotomy can be performed in various areas of the body, including the skull, pelvis, spine, limbs, and other parts of the body.

One type of osteotomy is corrective osteotomy, which is used to correct bone deformities. This surgery can be performed on any bone, but is most often used to treat deformities of the long bones of the extremities.

Corrective osteotomy involves cutting the bone and its subsequent fixation using special clamps. This allows you to change the shape of the bone and correct its deformation.

Segmental osteotomy is a type of corrective osteotomy. It consists of cutting the bone into several segments, which are then fixed using special fixing devices.

This method can correct more complex bone deformities than conventional osteotomy. Segmental osteotomy can be used to treat fractures, deformities, and other bone diseases.

However, like any other surgical procedure, osteotomy has its risks and complications. Therefore, before performing this operation, it is necessary to conduct a thorough examination of the patient and choose the optimal treatment method.

Oseotomy is a surgical method that involves cutting through the bone. It is used in the treatment of diseases and injuries of bones, joints, old injuries and congenital anomalies. There are open (under the fascial sheath) and closed (through a small incision of the skin and fascia) bone dissection. The goal is to improve the condition of functionally important elements of the damaged organ by correcting deformations, strengthening an anatomically incorrect fragment of the bone structure and expanding the cavity space.
