Our doctors use various surgical techniques to achieve correction of the limb discrepancies and injuries we see in our patients. From external fixators to new internal nails, there are several types of limb lengthening surgerical techniques we frequently perform when a patient needs lengthening of bone or correction for limb deformity, conditions such as knock knee and bowleg, or for other limb length discrepancy conditions.
