Plastic surgery according to Limberg

Due to the impossibility of inserting pictures into the chat, I am adding a fragment of text with an example of such “plasticity”. Plastic surgery of the lower extremities is a change in their shape by moving flaps of skin and subcutaneous tissue. Using this technique, you can reduce the angle of curvature of the knee joint (knee flexion) or the angle of lateral curvature of the tibia. According to the methods of David Limberg, plastic surgery of the hip flexor (posterior) is used. During this operation, the angle of flexion of the leg at the knee is adjusted to a certain degree. In this way, club feet, dislocations of the hip joint, etc. are eliminated. Sometimes posterior plastic surgery needs to be combined with another operation - Anterior transverse rotation plate of the hip bone. Indications for it are: non-healed fractures of the femur; arthrosis (coxarthrosis); violation of the trophism of the hip joint; rupture of the joint capsule and joint instability; excessive curvature of the knee joint or lower leg (most often occurs in the area of ​​the tibial tuberosity).
