Orthopaedic specialists who treat young patients may perform a distal femoral osteotomy (lower femoral osteotomy) when a congenital lower limb deformity is present, or to treat a few other conditions.
The Distal Femoral Osteotomy System uses similar standards of configuration included in the Tibial Osteotomy System. Specially outlined femoral osteotomy plates consider the anatomical contrasts between the distal femur and proximal tibia.
This procedure is performed in those patients who have osteoarthritis. The patient might feel excruciating pain due to degenerative congenital lower limb deformity. The difficulties arising out of the condition may cause long-term complications and even disability, if timely surgical intervention is not sought.
In order to undergo this procedure, a patient must fulfill the following criteria:
Your medical procedure will be performed using either a general soporific or a spinal soporific. Amid your medical procedure, your specialist will cut the lower portion of your femur (thigh bone). The incision will cover the entire bone yet will leave a small segment of bone to create a pivot. At that point using x-ray guidance, your specialist will open the pivot in your bone until your leg is straight. Once the right angle is accomplished, it will be fixed using a plate and screws. The plate and screws act like a cast that you would wear if you somehow happened to break your arm. Once your bone is settled, and the screws are put, your specialist will then put a material called Optium in the region of the cut. Optium is a bone putty that promotes healing. In the end, the incision will be shut using dissolvable sutures.
Healing from an osteotomy takes a while. The site of the medical procedure will be extremely sore and painful. Your doctor will advise that you shouldn't put any weight on it immediately, which means that you won't be able to walk or pursue sports for a while. You will have to use crutches, wheelchair or similar support. The recovery period may take up to 40 days.
Like many other invasive surgeries, lower or distal femoral osteotomy may cause some postoperative complications, which are:
