Electromagnetic Navigation Assisted Patient-Personalized Femoral Osteotomy for Acute Correction of Posttraumatic Residual Multiplanar Femoral Deformity with Shortening.

Improper healing of a femoral shaft fracture can result in posttraumatic residual multiplanar femoral deformity and limb shortening, which can be restored with a corrective osteotomy. Predominantly in complex posttraumatic circumstances, the use of computer assistance in orthopaedic surgery may facilitate meticulous preoperative planning, and further improve the accuracy and safety of such procedures, potentially resulting in better clinical outcomes. Herein, we present a unique case of electromagnetic navigation assisted patient-personalized femoral osteotomy for acute correction of posttraumatic residual multiplanar femoral deformity with shortening.
