Opening-wedge Osteotomy

Opening-Wedge Osteotomy is a surgical bone realignment technique classified as a type of osteotomy, distinguished by the creation of a wedge-shaped gap in the bone that is subsequently expanded and filled with a bone graft or implant to correct angular deformity, length, or alignment in metatarsal or spinal skeletal structures.
