Pediatric Limb Lengthening

Pediatric limb lengthening is a medical procedure used to help children who have shorter limbs due to growth disorders, injuries, or congenital conditions. It involves a surgical technique where the bone is gradually lengthened over time by using an external device or internal implants. This process allows the bone to grow new tissue in the gap created, resulting in increased limb length. The treatment is carefully planned and monitored to ensure proper healing and alignment, helping children achieve better mobility and improved quality of life as they grow.
