DEFORMITY CORRECTIONS (KNEE & FOOT)
Deformity can either be because of old neglected trauma or sequel of infection in the past.
It requires a very individual approach to the case as per patient’s symptoms and need.
Some times deformities around joints can be treated with replacement alone and in some cases it may require additional fixation as well.
Most commonly encountered deformities are:
Hallux Valgus
Great toe of foot going out and pushing all toes with it.
Complex Foot deformities
Complex foot deformities are defined as multiplanar rigid deformity of the foot with or without foot shortening.
Deformities around knee

- It becomes very painful
