Top Five Packages at OSMC
•Staged Treatment for Ankle Osteoarthritis (SMO Ankle Replacement)
•External Fixation for Complex Lower Limb Deformity
•Post-traumatic Foot and Ankle Deformity Reconstruction
•Complex Knee and Hip Revision
•Spinal Deformity Correction, Scoliosis, Kyphosis
Surgical methods for the treatment of stage 2 and stage 3 ankle osteoarthritis. The supramalleolar osteotomy (SMO) avoids ankle arthrodesis and ankle arthroplasty. It corrects the ankle joint alignment through osteotomy and realignment to achieve therapeutic outcomes. Ankle arthroplasty is indicated for stage 3 and stage 4 osteoarthritis. It can simultaneously correct varus deformity, while eliminating stiffness and abnormal gait that occur after ankle arthrodesis.
•Lower Limb Alignment Deformities: Severe genu varum/valgum, ankle varus/valgus, post-traumatic limb malalignment
•Complex Foot & Ankle Deformities: Rigid clubfoot, cavoclavus foot, severe flatfoot collapse (non-minimally invasive candidates in adults)
•Bone Defects & Limb Shortening: Segmental bone defects post trauma/infection, congenital/acquired leg length discrepancy (safe limb lengthening of 3–10 cm achievable)
•Joint Dysfunction: Post-traumatic ankle/knee stiffness, flexion contracture deformity
•Special Refractory Cases: Bone reconstruction post osteomyelitis surgery, fine alignment adjustment post corrective osteotomy.
Post-traumatic Foot and Ankle Deformity Reconstruction
This specifically refers to orthopedic treatments for sequelae of fractures and soft tissue injuries, such as pes planus collapse, metatarsus adductus, and post-traumatic clubfoot, which are indications for procedures including osteotomy and external fixation.
This specifically refers to complex revision arthroplasty procedures performed after primary hip or knee replacement surgery, indicated for complications such as prosthesis loosening, infection, bone defects, and fractures. These high-demand reconstructive surgeries often require adjunctive techniques including bone grafting, augment blocks, and extended stems or other specialized implants.
Prosthesis-Related Failure, Infectious Complications, Refractory and Recurrent Instability & Dislocation, Postoperative Periprosthetic Fractures, Severe Pain & Functional Limitation, Conservative Treatment Failure, Multiple failed previous revisions, severe soft tissue contracture and scarring, Significant limb length discrepancy, secondary compensatory pelvic/femoral deformities requiring simultaneous reconstruction.
Posterior Pedicle Screw Three-Dimensional Correction & Long-Segment Fusion, such as Severe scoliosis/kyphosis (Cobb >40°), rigid deformities, adult degenerative scoliosis.
Corrective Osteotomy technology: PSO (Pedicle Subtraction Osteotomy): Corrects severe kyphosis and sagittal imbalance, VCR (Vertebral Column Resection): Treats extremely rigid angular kyphosis and severe deformity collapse.
