Peculiarities of postoperative period management are presented for 186 patients with axial lower limb deformities. In the main group (n=95) computer technologies to plan the outcomes and control the treatment course as well as drug prevention of possible complications, i.e. deep vein thrombosis and deformity relapse, were used.
