Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Biomechanical analysis
  • Medical imaging

Background:

  • Bone deformities present complex challenges in correction.
  • Existing methods may struggle to address multi-planar deformities effectively.
  • Three-dimensional analysis offers potential for improved accuracy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a novel method for analyzing and correcting bone deformities.
  • To address deformities with coronal, sagittal, and horizontal components simultaneously.
  • To provide a framework for precise, multi-planar bone deformity correction.

Main Methods:

  • Application of vector analysis in three-dimensional space.
  • Determination of a treatment axis orientation in space.
  • Rotation of the limb segment around the treatment axis for simultaneous correction.

  • Successful application in analyzing and correcting complex bone deformities.
  • Demonstrates feasibility for gradual deformity correction using external fixators.

Conclusions:

  • Vector analysis in 3D space provides an effective method for bone deformity correction.
  • The described technique enables simultaneous correction of multi-planar deformities.
  • This approach is particularly suitable for gradual correction with modular external fixators.
