Cubitus varus deformity is a common complication of supracondylar fractures in children. Anatomic correction is the key to obtaining good functional results and avoiding later symptomatic degradation. Different techniques have been described, mainly lateral closing wedge osteotomy. A medial opening wedge osteotomy seems more intuitive, allowing an anatomic reduction, but it is technically challenging. Two-plane radiographs are too simplistic to appreciate the 3D deformity. With medical imaging and image processing advances, three-dimensional (3D) virtual models of a patient's anatomy can be generated. Rapid 3D printing has allowed virtual simulations of surgical corrections to be transferred to real-world applications in the operating room, allowing more precise and accurate surgery with better 3D corrections. 3D computer modeling with the development of customized drilling and cutting guides allows complex medial opening wedge osteotomy for correction of cubitus varus deformity in immature children with best-fit plate synthesis.
