Soft Tissue Release Surgery Pune
Sancheti Hospital offers expert soft tissue release surgery to improve joint flexibility, relieve stiffness, and restore natural movement effectively.
What is Soft Tissue Release Surgery?
Soft tissue release surgery is a corrective orthopaedic procedure performed to lengthen, loosen, or release tight muscles, tendons, or ligaments. This is commonly required in children with conditions such as cerebral palsy, clubfoot, hip dislocation, or contractures caused by neurological disorders. Tightness in soft tissues can restrict movement, cause deformities, and make walking or daily activities difficult.
During the procedure, surgeons carefully release or lengthen the affected muscles and tendons to restore proper alignment, improve flexibility, and enhance functional movement. Soft tissue release may be done as a standalone procedure or combined with other orthopaedic surgeries, depending on the child’s condition.
Benefits of Soft Tissue Release Surgery
- Improves joint mobility and functional movement
- Reduces pain and stiffness caused by muscle tightness
- Corrects deformities and prevents further progression
- Enhances walking ability, posture, and overall independence
- Improves quality of life and daily activity participation
Limitations and Disadvantages
- Recovery requires intensive rehabilitation and physiotherapy
- Some children may require repeated surgeries as they grow
- Risk of complications such as infection, scar formation, or incomplete correction
Not all deformities can be corrected with soft tissue release alone—sometimes bone surgeries may also be required
