The process of straightening a bone that is abnormally twisted or bent is known as deformity correction. The arm, leg, or foot regains normal alignment and function once the bone has straightened. There are two methods for correcting deformities: simultaneously throughout an acute correction surgery Gradual correction is the process of making small changes over a period of weeks or months. The doctor will select the best course of action for each patient based on their individual circumstances. In order to create two distinct bone segments, the surgeon makes a cut across the bone during surgery. An osteotomy is the surgical procedure used to cut a bone. After that, the physician will realign the bone. Once the bone has been properly positioned, the surgeon inserts an internal device to maintain the corrected position of the bone during the healing process. An internal nail or rod or a metal plate could be the internal device. To give the muscles and nerves time to adjust to the correction, additional soft-tissue procedures are occasionally performed concurrently. A second surgery may be necessary to remove the internal device once the bone has healed.
