Abstract

Valgus deformity of the elbow joint is a complex orthopedic pathology requiring a comprehensive approach in diagnosis and treatment. This article examines modern methods of evaluating this pathology taking into account age-related characteristics of patients, as well as analyzes various surgical techniques for deformity correction. Special attention is paid to the effectiveness of surgical interventions depending on patient age and the degree of deformity development.
