Orthopaedic surgery for hallux valgus is a common surgical treatment in orthopaedics. It consists of an osteotomy of the proximal tibia and an osteotomy of the distal femur. The cost of surgery is related to materials, anesthesia, and hospital, and is usually around 20,000 RMB.
The basic principle of the surgery is to make an osteotomy according to the deformity angle of the rotunda leg, and at the same time to fixate it internally with a steel plate and screws. The osteotomy site is usually implanted with homograft or allograft bone to promote healing.
The cost of the plate screws and the quality of the implanted bone varies depending on the material. However, the approximate cost is around $10,000 dollars. Also add the cost of anesthesia for the surgery and the costs associated with hospitalization, and you’re looking at about $20,000 for the procedure.
Surgical treatment for rotator cuff needs to be performed in a qualified hospital.
