Bone Reconstruction and Lengthening Unit
Specialists in bone dysplasias, growth disorders, bone malformations, bone lengthening, arthroplasties, lower extremity sports traumatology, and stem cell treatments.
Early diagnosis of the type of deformity is of great importance for the prognosis of limb functionality.
At ICATRECON, based on the diagnosis, a personalized study of the malformation is carried out to project the future limb length discrepancy, the shape, and stability of the joints, as well as their movement capacity.

PROGNOSIS OF LIMB LENGTH DISCREPANCY
- Undoubtedly, one of the greatest concerns in cases of congenital malformation is determining the future limb length discrepancy.
In all cases, segmental bone growth is monitored using the most advanced measurement techniques, and individualized growth curves are created to reliably apply the various tables and applications for discrepancy prediction. Additionally, at ICATRECON, we offer an advanced orthopedics service to provide the most appropriate footwear at each stage of growth.
