Computer Hexapod-assisted Orthopaedic Surgery for the Correction of Multiplanar Deformities throughout the Lower Limb.

Strategies Trauma Limb Reconstr

Limb Reconstruction Unit, Trauma and Orthopaedics, Bristol Royal Infirmary, Bristol, England, United Kingdom.

Introduction: Computerised hexapod-assisted orthopaedic surgery (CHAOS) is a method by which complex multiplanar, multilevel deformity can be corrected with a high degree of accuracy utilising minimally invasive techniques within a single operative event. This study's aim was to report the reliability, accuracy and magnitude of correction achieved, alongside patient-reported outcomes and risk factors for complications when using the CHAOS technique throughout the lower limb.

Materials And Methods: Retrospective review of medical records and radiographs for consecutive patients who underwent CHAOS for lower limb deformity correction at a tertiary centre between 2012 and 2020.
