Corrective Osteotomy Surgery
Released Date: 2025-02-02
🩺 Corrective Osteotomy Surgery in India
Corrective osteotomy realigns bones that have healed incorrectly (malunion), are deformed, or are causing pain and joint wear — restoring function and preventing future arthritis.
🔬 What is Corrective Osteotomy?
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.

✅ Who Needs This Surgery
- ✓ Fracture malunion or non-union causing pain or reduced function
- ✓ Deformities exceeding 10–15 degrees of angulation in the frontal plane
- ✓ Limb shortening of more than 3 cm
- ✓ Deformity-related early joint wear (osteoarthritis risk)
- ✓ Unacceptable cosmetic appearance affecting quality of life
📈 Recovery & Outcomes
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.
