Femur, Distal - Malalignment and Deformity - Biplanar Closed-Wedge Osteotomy and Fixation

Looks difficult on bone model... imaging how it will be on patient?!

I wish this wasn't true, but these osteotomy surgeries ruin people's health and that of all the other people who have them done. The bone where they sawed afterwards doesn't stick properly anymore, it gets weak and it will slide little by little and sink inwards with time. I believe that a bone scar is left or for some other reason I don't know. Maybe it is left with little room to regenerate and becomes weak or another reason. It is not the same as a normal fracture where afterwards the bone becomes normal again. When you sawed it, or break it with a chisel, in this case it is different. The bone is left with a problem afterwards. Then the person gets all twisted because of this, as the bone sinks, it ends up twisting or sinks all the other bones of the body. If they do it in the lower limbs. But everywhere, it ends up disturbing people. Besides that, the nerves around where they do this also sink and leave their original place, and then the person starts to feel everything altered and only starts to feel bad things afterwards. Both in the external environment and in the body itself because of this. This surgery is a mistake in medicine, just as there are mistakes in any other profession. I don't know how it hasn't been forbidden until today, with so many people getting bad afterwards, I'm pretty sure all of them. It doesn't matter if it is done on the nose, leg, foot, heel, people end up getting bad the same way. I hope this comment helps. Take great care, health is very precious. After we lose it, our life becomes very difficult, and so does the life of the people around us, who end up being affected as well. A hug

@@user-by1kj8ev7s yeah idk this person makes zero sense and is copy pasting this message all over the place. Cell damage is cell damage, the body doesnt know if it was done by a saw blade or a bone break. And leaving the metal plate in would prevent the bone from collapsing forever. Plus this person is low iq, it absolutely it a different scenario depending where in the body you do it. Osteotomies have one of the highest symptom relief results of any other surgery. This person/bot is i presume to be trying to scare people out of bettering their health. If you keep your bone deformity odds are you will have many other issues. I know i have knock knees and perpetually tear cartilage/soft tissue in my hips and knees because the deformity screws up the alignment and movement of the joints.

"I believe that a bone scar is left or for some other reason I don't know." of course you dont know; you might not have knowledge about medicine. You should read about how bone heals and the stages of bone healing. Its true that some techniques dont work as they should, thats why they make clinical trials. Medicine is not a exact science, most of it, because depends how the body reacts to each treatment. Most of the time the bone heals, there are some cases when it doesnt and it turns into something called pseudoarthrosis, but that will depend on each patient. The idea of this treatment is to align the knee to avoid weathering in the lateral compartment that might cause further arthrosis. The gap is closed once the plate is put in place.
