Corrective osteotomy realigns bones that have healed incorrectly (malunion), are deformed, or are causing pain and joint wear — restoring function and preventing future arthritis.
Corrective osteotomy is a surgical procedure in which a bone is deliberately cut and repositioned to correct a deformity or malunion (a fracture that healed out of alignment). It restores proper mechanical alignment of the limb, reduces pain, improves function and appearance, and helps prevent secondary joint osteoarthritis.
Modern corrective osteotomy uses precise 3D surgical planning and patient-specific guides for accuracy. Studies report an average time to bone union of around 6 months, with metaphyseal (near-joint) osteotomies typically healing faster than those in the shaft of the bone, and the majority of patients reporting significant improvement in range of motion and satisfaction with the outcome.
