My wife taught Special Ed (Orthopedically Handicapped) for 32 years, she had quite a few of these students over her time in teaching.
She was thrilled to hear about this success, much better to repair this problem in utero, where the child still has the protection of the mother and her immune system.

Yes surgical correction is possible, but much harder on the child.
A lot more opportunity for infection and outside physical trauma.
