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.
