Pediatric Deformity Correction of Foot

At GMC Ortho Hospital, we specialize in Pediatric Deformity Correction of the foot. Children may be born with congenital or acquired foot deformities that require expert care to ensure proper development and function. Our dedicated pediatric orthopedic team is experienced in addressing a wide range of pediatric foot deformities.

Conditions We Treat:

1. Clubfoot (Congenital Talipes Equinovarus): Clubfoot is a common congenital foot deformity where the foot is turned inward and downward. Our specialists employ a range of techniques, including the Ponseti method, to gradually correct clubfoot in infants.
2. Metatarsus Adductus: This condition involves a curved or rotated positioning of the front part of the foot. Treatment may involve stretching, casting, or, in some cases, surgery.
3. Vertical Talus (Rocker Bottom Foot): Vertical talus is a rare congenital deformity where the foot is in an abnormal fixed position. Surgical correction may be necessary to restore proper alignment.

Our Approach:

• Early Intervention: Timely evaluation and intervention are critical for pediatric foot deformities. We work closely with parents to ensure early diagnosis and develop a customized treatment plan.
• Non-Surgical and Surgical Options: Depending on the severity and type of deformity, we offer a range of treatment options, including non-surgical methods like casting and stretching, as well as surgical correction when needed.
• Child-Centered Care: Our approach to pediatric deformity correction emphasizes the unique needs of young patients, focusing on their comfort and overall well-being throughout the treatment process.

Congenital Dislocation Surgical Correction

Congenital dislocation refers to the abnormal displacement of a joint present at birth. When it occurs in the hip joint, it’s known as congenital hip dislocation or developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Early detection and intervention are crucial to prevent long-term complications.

Our Expertise:

At GMC Ortho Hospital, we specialize in the surgical correction of congenital dislocations, particularly in the hip joint.

Conditions We Address:

1. Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH): DDH is a condition where the hip joint doesn’t develop properly, leading to instability and potential dislocation. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to achieve optimal hip joint function.
2. Congenital Knee Dislocation: In some cases, congenital dislocation can affect the knee joint. Surgical correction may be necessary to restore proper alignment and function.

Treatment Approach:

• Early Diagnosis: Early detection of congenital dislocation is crucial. We conduct thorough evaluations and utilize imaging techniques to diagnose and assess the severity of the condition.
• Customized Surgical Intervention: Our orthopedic surgeons perform specialized surgical procedures to correct the dislocated joint, often involving realignment and stabilization techniques.
• Postoperative Care: Following surgery, our team provides comprehensive postoperative care and rehabilitation to ensure a successful outcome and optimal joint function.
• Pediatric-Focused Care: We prioritize the unique needs of pediatric patients, providing child-friendly, compassionate care throughout their treatment journey
