Doctor: S. Robert Rozbruch
Patient: Maria
Maria has brittle diabetes, is blind, and has neuropathy. This led to a tibia fracture that failed to heal. and deformed. She was unable to walk.
We applied a frame and gradually distracted through the stiff nonunion to correct the deformity. Maria did her own frame adjustments. Surgical exposure of the nonunion and bone grafting was not needed. This was fully healed by 4.5 months and Maria and Henry resumed their active schedule.
