Lengthening and reconstruction of congenital leg deficiencies for enhanced prosthetic wear.

Nazzar Tellisi1, Austin T Fragomen, Svetlana Ilizarov, S Robert Rozbruch.   

Abstract

Congenital limb deficiencies with severe shortening and/or deformity can be difficult to fit with a prosthesis. We report two patients in whom gradual lengthening and deformity correction with the Ilizarov/Taylor spatial frame was used to improve prosthesis fit, comfort, and gait.
