Frequently Asked Questions

Limb Lengthening is achieved using the body's capacity to regenerate new bone as well as the soft tissues, ligaments, blood vessels, and nerves that surround and support it.

The procedure begins with an operation called an osteotomy, in which the Orthopaedic Surgeon cuts the bone to be lengthened.

The limb (usually the upper or lower leg) is then stabilized using one of several different external and internal fixation devices.
