    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Surgery may be necessary for Paget's disease complications, including fractures, severe limb deformities, and hip joint issues, though malignant degeneration remains untreatable.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopaedics
    • Bone Metabolism Disorders

    Context:

    • Paget's disease of bone is a chronic condition affecting bone remodeling.
    • Surgical interventions are sometimes required for managing complications of Paget's disease.

    Purpose:

    • To outline the surgical indications and approaches for managing Paget's disease complications.
    • To discuss the efficacy of various orthopaedic treatments for Paget's disease.

    Summary:

    • Fractures in Paget's disease heal slowly but orthopaedically well, with osteosynthesis needed for femur fractures.
    • Severe lower limb deformities causing disablement can be corrected with osteotomy, ensuring functional improvement.
    • Coxopathy (hip disease) in Paget's patients may necessitate total hip arthroplasty for severe disability.
    • Malignant degeneration, confirmed by biopsy, is not amenable to therapeutic treatment.
