About Osteotomy Humerus

An osteotomy of the humerus is a precise surgical procedure performed by pediatric orthopedic surgeons to correct significant deformities or malalignments in a child's upper arm bone (humerus). This involves carefully cutting and realigning the bone to restore proper anatomy, improve function, and alleviate pain. Common reasons for this procedure in children include correcting angular deformities from birth conditions, malunions from previous fractures, or rotational issues affecting shoulder and elbow movement. The goal is to promote normal growth, enhance limb use, and prevent long-term joint problems. This specialized surgery requires detailed pre-operative planning with imaging and is tailored to each child's unique skeletal development.

Key Highlights

Who is this surgery for?

Congenital deformities of the humerus (present at birth).
Malunion (improper healing) of a previous humerus fracture.
Blount's disease or other growth plate disorders affecting the arm.
Significant rotational deformity (internal or external torsion) impairing function.
Angular deformity (cubitus varus or valgus) from injury or condition.
Progressive deformity that is not correctable with bracing.

How to prepare

Comprehensive consultation and physical exam with the pediatric orthopedic surgeon.
Detailed imaging studies, including X-rays and possibly a CT scan, for surgical planning.
Pre-operative blood tests and a general health assessment.
Discussion of anesthesia (typically general) with the anesthesiologist.
Instructions on fasting (no food or drink) for a period before surgery.
Planning for post-operative pain management and support at home.

Risks & possible complications

Infection at the surgical site or in the bone.
Bleeding or hematoma (collection of blood).
Nerve or blood vessel injury, potentially affecting sensation or movement.
Stiffness in the shoulder or elbow joint.
Delayed healing or non-union of the bone.
Need for further surgery (e.g., hardware removal).
Anesthesia-related risks.

Recovery & hospital stay

Initial recovery in the hospital with pain management and monitoring.
The arm will be placed in a cast or splint for several weeks to protect the bone.
Strict elevation of the arm to reduce swelling is crucial in the first days.
Follow-up X-rays are taken to monitor bone healing.
Once the bone shows sufficient healing, gentle physical therapy begins to restore range of motion and strength.
Gradual return to normal activities and sports as approved by the surgeon, which can take several months.
Regular follow-up visits are needed for up to a year to ensure proper growth and alignment.

Typical hospital stay: 2-4 days
Expected recovery time: 6-12 weeks for initial bone healing; 6-12 months for full recovery and return to sports

PATIENT REVIEW

Our 8-year-old daughter fractured her elbow...

Our 8-year-old daughter fractured her elbow in a playground fall, and Dr. Prashanth Inna was absolutely phenomenal. He explained the complex procedure in simple terms, calmed our nerves, and the minimally invasive surgery went perfectly. His follow-up care was thorough, and she's now back to gymnastics without any issues!
