Limb Lengthening Service of the Hospital for Special Surgery
Our surgeons offer surgical treatments for the correction of upper and lower limb deformities, discrepancies, and injuries in adults and children. We help individuals with orthopaedic issues due to trauma, birth defects, infections or bone tumors. Our aim is to use the best tools available today — from hexapod external fixation to internal limb lengthening devices, such as the Precice® motorized magnetic nail and the newest technology, the STRYDE® weight bearing lengthening nail. These tools are combined with our surgeons' expert surgical techniques to achieve results many patients have only dreamed of.
We perform arm and leg lengthening, limb malalignment correction, repair bone nonunions, and treat knee and ankle arthritis with distraction, fusion, or replacement. Along with limb length discrepancy, we correct genu valgum, commonly known as knock knee, and genu varum, or bowleg. We are experts at limb salvage and amputation reconstruction. Whether patients are suffering from arthritis, genetic deformity, bone tumor, or the after effects of a traumatic accident, the Limb Lengthening & Complex Reconstruction Service of Hospital for Special Surgery is ready to get them on the road to recovery and an improved quality of life.
This is Mr A. Previously featured on the channel. He is now 8 months out from right #abovekneeamputation #amputation to address his infected knee prosthesis. When we first met, he struggled to walk and required a cane. Following amputation he healed excellently, and worked diligently with our physical therapists to improve his walking, back to where he started within a couple months. He had never been around snow before, and felt confident enough to take a walk unaided! Now as he completes his #amputeerehabilitation , he demonstrates great use of the prosthesis, which was matched so well to him that it is hard to tell which side had the surgery!

We lost a friend and member of our team this weekend so I reflect with a heavy heart. Ed exemplified hard work and dedication, was warm, funny, lovingly nerdy, and he was a joy to see in the OR everyday. He is irreplaceable and will be sorely missed. Rest in peace my friend.

I will miss you my friend and surgical team mate Edward J. Limbert. We had a HSS OR sponsored fundraiser and tribute to Ed and Jose last night. It was a great night of HSS solidarity and support of Ed’s family, his wife Lauren. He will be sorely missed and remembered by many. #Rozbruch #aaos #llrs #orthopedicsurgery #liveyourbestlife @all4ortho #orthopedicsurgeon #hospitalforspecialsurgery #limblengthening @hspecialsurgery @limbdeformity @reifmd #SRobertRozbruchMD www.limblengthening.com www.hss.edu/limblengthening www.hss.edu/LSARC #hssLLCRS #HSSlimbLengthening

Z and I had a wonderful time fixing her #knockknees
Beyond just straightening her legs and optimizing her knee health, the surgery and follow up allow surgeon and patient to chat about family, careers, delve into what ails the world, and provide reciprocal support and advice. It can make graduation day a bittersweet visit, but with results and memories that last a lifetime!

Christina had severe post-traumatic #equinovarus deformity after a #pilonfracture I used a hexapod fixator to correct the contracture and achieve #ankledistraction This was accompanied by tarsal tunnel and tendon releases.

From 2006 to today, I have had the privilege of caring for Linda over the last 18 years. After 4 total joint replacements she is doing great. Who says orthopedic surgeons don’t get to have deep meaningful relationships with their patients? #totalhipteplacement #totalkneereplacement #Rozbruch #aaos #llrs #orthopedicsurgery #liveyourbestlife @all4ortho #orthopedicsurgeon #hospitalforspecialsurgery #limblengthening @hspecialsurgery @limbdeformity @reifmd #SRobertRozbruchMD www.limblengthening.com www.hss.edu/limblengthening www.hss.edu/LSARC #hssLLCRS #HSSlimbLengthening
