1. What is LAPIDUS 3D Bunionectomy Surgery?

LAPIDUS 3D bunionectomy is a surgical approach intended to correct hallux valgus alignment in three dimensions. The procedure may involve realigning and stabilizing the joint at the base of the first metatarsal according to the patient's anatomy and deformity.

2. How does LAPIDUS 3D differ from traditional bunion surgery?

Some bunion procedures focus mainly on removing the visible bump or shifting bone alignment. A three-dimensional LAPIDUS-based approach is designed to address rotational, lateral, and vertical components of the deformity. The best technique depends on the patient's X-rays, joint stability, symptoms, and surgeon assessment.

3. Is LAPIDUS 3D Bunionectomy Surgery painful?

The procedure is performed with anesthesia. Post-operative pain, swelling, and soreness can occur and are generally managed with prescribed medication, elevation, protective footwear, and other recovery instructions from the surgical team.

4. Who may be a candidate for LAPIDUS 3D Bunion Correction?

Patients with symptomatic moderate or severe hallux valgus, persistent foot pain, difficulty with footwear, reduced mobility, joint instability, or recurrence after previous bunion surgery may be evaluated. Final candidacy is determined after orthopedic examination and imaging.

5. How long is the hospital stay included in the package?

The package includes 2 days of hospitalization for the patient and an accompanying companion, including nursing care, doctor follow-up, and three daily meals.

6. Can I walk after LAPIDUS 3D Bunion Surgery?

Weight-bearing depends on the surgical technique, fixation, bone quality, and surgeon's protocol. Some patients may begin protected weight-bearing using a surgical boot, while others may need stricter limitations. Follow the orthopedic surgeon's individual instructions.

7. Can a bunion return after LAPIDUS 3D surgery?

Recurrence is possible after any bunion procedure. A three-dimensional correction is intended to address important structural components of hallux valgus, but recurrence risk depends on anatomy, surgical technique, healing, footwear, activity, and other individual factors.

8. How long should I stay in Istanbul?

Patients are advised to plan approximately 7 to 10 days in Istanbul for consultation, diagnostics, surgery, hospitalization, early recovery, follow-up, and travel clearance.

9. Are airport transfers included?

Yes. The package includes round-trip transfers between the airport and hospital.
