Bone deformity treatment
Bone deformity is a change in the shape or position of bones that can occur due to injury, diseases such as arthritis, rickets or osteoporosis, or congenital abnormalities. Deformities can cause pain, impaired mobility and limit daily activities.
Bone deformities can be congenital or acquired as a result of injury, disease, or abnormal development. Deformities are often caused by diseases such as rickets, osteoporosis, dysplasia, or genetic abnormalities.
The primary goal of treatment is to restore normal bone structure and function, improve the patient's quality of life, and prevent deformity related complications. Bone deformities require a thorough approach, including diagnosis, therapy and rehabilitation. The best results can be achieved through an individualised approach and specialist supervision.
Common blood and urine tests Coagulogram (blood clotting assessment) ECG (electrocardiogram) to assess heart condition X-ray of the injured area Computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
Mild or moderate deformities are often treated conservatively, with physiotherapy treatments aimed at improving range of motion and strengthening the muscles around the affected area. Orthopedic devices such as braces or orthoses are used to correct and support deformed bones. More complex cases may require surgical intervention, especially when the deformity severely affects the functionality of the limb or causes significant pain. This involves osteotomy, where bone fragments are cut and repositioned to restore the proper structure and function of the bone. Arthroplasty may be required if there is significant joint damage. Alternatively, steel plates, pins or screws may be used to correct the deformity to provide stability and support during the healing process.
Orthopedic fixators: plates, pins and screws to stabilize bones after correction Imaging equipment: X-ray machines and CT scanners.
After treatment, the rehabilitation stage begins, aimed at restoring functions and strengthening the muscles around the corrected bone. Rehabilitation may include physical therapy exercises, physical therapy and, if necessary, the use of orthopedic devices. The duration and intensity of rehabilitation measures depend on the complexity of the deformity and the general state of health of the patient.
