Surgical repositioning

Surgical repositioning is a medical procedure where a surgeon moves parts of the body, such as bones or tissues, back into their correct place to restore proper alignment and function. This is often done when injuries like fractures or dislocations displace bones out of normal position, or when deformities need correction. The goal is to improve stability, reduce pain, and promote proper healing. The procedure may involve realigning bones, reshaping tissues, or adjusting joints, and is typically performed under anesthesia to ensure patient comfort.
