The surgical treatment of valgus deformation is considered an effective method of treatment.This disease is characterized by a pathological change in the shape of the foot, which requires restoration, otherwise complications will be disabled.The operation is usually performed in 3-4 stages of pathology.
Surgery as an effective treatment method for valgus
Development factors
In the first stage, the foot degree is difficult to determine asymptomatic.Ballerins, women who prefer high taps, are located in the formation of advanced people, such a pathology.Such causes of valgus foot formation can be distinguished:
- Disease of the endocrine system;
- flat foot;
- violation of the league;
- limb injuries;
- heredity.
This disease is classified as such stages of development, depending on the degree of injury:
- The first finger shifts less than 20 degrees while the patient does not feel discomfort.
- The connection is shifted by 30 degrees.Pain is manifested after load.
- Move from 30-50 degrees.Constant sensation of pain that does not allow normal movement.
- The joint shifts more than 50 degrees.A strong deformation of foot and acute pain.
In children, valgus deformation can be congenital or obtained.This disease develops in the background of the pathologies of the muscle system.The first signs appear when the child begins to walk.
What is valgus dangerous?
When developing such a pathology, a sick person has a problem with choosing a shoe because the swollen bone causes severe discomfort and pain when touching it.In addition to aesthetic modifications, the deformation of valgus affects such structures such as ligaments, tendons, bones and compounds.In addition to valgus, the legs are dangerous to develop such pathologies of the muscle system:
- joint deformist;
- Bursit in chronic form;
- longitudinal transversion flat legs;
- increase in bone-taste structures;
- A complete displacement of the extra bone.
Signs of actions on the foot of Valgus
It is not the child that the child does not work until the leg develops completely.The main indicators of the intervention are pain, discomfort, limited motor activity, inflammatory processes, infection, severe visual changes and walking.The foot of the flat valley is treated only on surgery.Other methods - gymnastics, orthopedics, suspend the development of pathology.But in 3-4 stages conservatively, not to solve the problem.At this stage, the finger differs 25-35 degrees and the extra bone sinks by 18 degrees, which is deformed by the other walls.
Types and characteristics of providence
The selection of a certain type of surgery is performed separately, depending on the degree of pathology development, the condition of the patient and the related diseases of the muscle bone system.More often this type of surgical intervention is used:
- Osteotomy.This is the reconstruction.A small incision is performed through which the lateatarsophalangeal connection is made.The bone growth is then eliminated.The bone is removed on an immobilized joint.Osteotomy is performed by later consolidation of bone fragments and using a compression titanium device.Distinguish with the following subspecies: Austin V- or L -shaped secedia used for 17 ° display;Scarf Z-shaped with a difference of 17-40 °;AKIN (wedge -shaped) - combines other methods.
- Small invasive intervention is a economical technique.The punches are made on both sides of the thumb.The surgeon introduces the micro -fittings and restores the correct position of the first finger axis.The operation is regulated through the monitor.This type of operation is carried out by children if traditional treatment methods have not been results.
- Artrodesis is a radical method.Deformation and pain are eliminated, but the relationship becomes motionless.Lack of mobility does not affect the person's flight.Through the open incision, the proximal and first extra bones are removed, and the remaining fragments are connected to screws that are later removed.
Correction of bone position is a complex operation.Immediately after surgical manipulations, the specialist recommends the bed rest.Swelling of the soft tissues is removed with cold compresses.The first 6 weeks of walking is only possible in one orthosis that removes an additional load from the limb.Restoring regular motor activities - after 1.5 months.Rehabilitation takes about six months.The postoperative period (10 days) The patient is in the hospital under the supervision of doctors.To accelerate the restoration process, the functioning limb is important to keep it in a position above the body.Rehabilitation includes massage courses, electrophoresis, body practice and UVT.
Complication
Surgical interventions of such a plan are tolerated primarily at any age.But there are undesirable complications.They belong to:
- formation of thrombosis;
- infectious infections of the body;
- aseptic necrosis;
- Limit the motor amplitude of the thumb;
- injuries of nerve endings;
- allergic manifestations;
- The fingers are paresthesia.
Forecasts after surgery
If the intervention is performed on both legs, it is important to take a 3-6 month break.
If you follow your doctor's recommendations, the forecasts are favorable.Do not fill the operated limb with strong physical effort.After surgery, you should wear orthopedic shoes or a special foot.It is better for women to leave high heels and dense shoes.Thanks to the modern methods used in the area of surgery, Valgus is exposed to complete correction.
