METHOD OF CORRECTIVE OSTEOTOMY OF FEMUR Russian patent published in 2019 - IPC A61B17/56 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to traumatology and orthopaedics and can be used for corrective osteotomy of femoral bone. In the area of osteotomy in the frontal plane, two K-wires are delivered at an angle corresponding to the deformation correction angle. In the course of the pins, channels are drilled, through which the V-shaped osteotomy is performed by the oscillating saw in such a way that the osteotomy planes on the anterior and posterior parts of the bone converge near the lower opening. Disconnected bone fragments, on both sides of the end of the proximal bone fragment, one wedge is sawed out so that the osteotomy planes meet at the previously drilled upper hole. An angle of the proximal bone fragment on the side where deformation is corrected is inserted telescopically into a distal bone fragment.

EFFECT: method enables reducing the length of consolidation, reducing a risk of forming a false joint.
