Malposition of the femur
Surgery is performed if the deformity causes pain or a significant functional disorder and conservative measures are not sufficient.
The femur is cut in a targeted manner, the axis is corrected and fixed with a metal plate.
Physiotherapy usually begins early after the operation. In the initial phase, the leg will only be partially weight-bearing. Thrombosis prophylaxis and ongoing physiotherapy measures support the healing process. The overall course of rehabilitation can vary depending on the individual situation.
