surgical stabilization

Surgical stabilization refers to medical procedures used to support and secure damaged bones or joints during healing. This often involves the use of metal plates, screws, or rods to hold broken bones in place, ensuring they align properly as they heal. The goal is to restore stability, reduce pain, and improve function, allowing patients to return to normal activities. This approach is commonly used in orthopedic surgery for fractures, joint injuries, and certain spinal conditions. The process typically requires careful planning and is performed by specialized surgeons.
