About Pelvic Deformity

Pelvic deformity correction in pediatric orthopedics is a specialized surgical procedure designed to address significant structural abnormalities of the pelvic bones in children and adolescents. These deformities, which can be congenital (present at birth) or acquired from trauma or disease, often cause pain, leg length discrepancy, hip instability, and gait abnormalities. The goal of surgery is to restore normal pelvic anatomy, improve hip joint function, and ensure proper alignment for healthy skeletal development. Pediatric orthopedic surgeons utilize advanced techniques, including osteotomies (bone cuts) and precise internal fixation, to reshape the pelvis. This complex procedure requires meticulous planning with 3D imaging and is tailored to each child's unique growth pattern to achieve optimal long-term outcomes and improved quality of life.

Key Highlights

Restores normal pelvic anatomy and hip joint alignment for improved function.Addresses leg length discrepancies and abnormal gait patterns.Alleviates chronic pain and prevents early-onset arthritis.Tailored to the child's specific growth and development needs.Utilizes advanced 3D imaging and surgical planning for precision.Aims to provide long-term stability and improve overall mobility./ul

Who is this surgery for?

Congenital conditions like Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH) with severe acetabular deformity.
Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease resulting in femoral head collapse and secondary pelvic deformity.
Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis (SCFE) with severe displacement.
Post-traumatic malunion or non-union of pelvic fractures.
Neuromuscular diseases (e.g., cerebral palsy, spina bifida) causing hip subluxation/dislocation.
Significant leg length discrepancy originating from pelvic asymmetry.
Progressive deformity causing pain, instability, or limited mobility unresponsive to conservative care.

How to prepare

Comprehensive evaluation including detailed medical history and physical examination.
Advanced imaging: X-rays, CT scans with 3D reconstruction, and sometimes MRI.
Pre-operative planning meeting to discuss surgical goals, techniques, and risks with the family.
Pre-anesthetic check-up to ensure fitness for surgery.
Possible pre-operative traction or casting for specific conditions.
Instructions on fasting (NPO) prior to surgery.
Arranging for blood donation if required (autologous or donor).

Risks & possible complications

General surgical risks: Infection, bleeding, blood clots (deep vein thrombosis), and anesthesia complications.
Nerve or blood vessel injury, potentially affecting leg sensation or circulation.
Non-union or malunion of the osteotomy sites.
Persistent pain, stiffness, or limited range of motion in the hip.
Leg length discrepancy may not be fully corrected.
Hardware irritation or failure, possibly requiring a second surgery for removal.
Heterotopic ossification (abnormal bone growth in soft tissues).
Risk of recurrence, especially in growing children with underlying conditions.

Recovery & hospital stay

Initial hospital stay for pain management, monitoring, and beginning physical therapy.
Use of a spica cast, brace, or abduction pillow to maintain proper hip position.
Strict non-weight-bearing on the operated leg for several weeks, using crutches or a walker.
Gradual introduction of weight-bearing and mobility exercises as guided by the surgeon and physical therapist.
Regular follow-up appointments for X-rays to monitor bone healing and alignment.
Home exercises and outpatient physical therapy are crucial to regain strength, flexibility, and gait.
Full recovery and return to sports/activities may take several months to a year.
Long-term monitoring may be needed throughout the child's growth period.

Typical hospital stay: 5-10 days
Expected recovery time: 6-12 months for full functional recovery

PATIENT REVIEW

Angel Garcia is a cheerful 14-year-old...

Angel Garcia is a cheerful 14-year-old from a tight-knit family in San Antonio. An avid soccer player, he was born with a mild form of bladder exstrophy, which was repaired in infancy but left him with a subtle rotational pelvic deformity. As he entered his growth spurt, Angel began experiencing increasing hip and lower back pain during games and practice. His running gait became asymmetrical, and he struggled to keep up with his teammates. After evaluation by Dr. Chen, a pediatric orthopedic surgeon, it was determined that his pelvis had developed a significant internal rotation, causing biomechanical strain. Dr. recommended a guided growth procedure with temporary hemiepiphysiodesis (using small plates) on his pelvis to gently correct the rotation over time, avoiding a major osteotomy. Angel was nervous about missing soccer season but understood the long-term goal. The minimally invasive surgery went smoothly. During the 9-month correction period, he attended physical therapy diligently, focusing on core strength and flexibility. Once the plates were removed, his pain resolved entirely. After six months of dedicated rehab, he returned to the soccer field stronger and more balanced. Emotionally, he journeyed from frustration and fear of falling behind to immense relief and pride in his resilience, feeling like he had regained control of his body and his passion.
