Restoring Strength, Mobility & Symmetry
Leg defects—whether congenital or due to trauma—can impact walking ability, balance, and appearance. With advanced reconstructive techniques, we help patients regain mobility and confidence.
What are Leg Defects?
Leg defects may be:
- Congenital: Present at birth (shortened limb, bowing, deformity)
- Acquired: Due to accidents, fractures, infections, or tumors
Why Correction is Important
- Functional Benefits: Improved walking ability, balance, and joint health
- Cosmetic Benefits: Enhanced leg shape and symmetry
- Emotional Benefits: Boosts self-esteem and confidence in social and professional life

- Surgical Correction: Bone realignment, plating, or lengthening procedures
- Soft Tissue Surgery: Muscle and tendon balancing for better function
- Reconstructive Techniques: Skin and bone grafts when needed
Results You Can Expect:
- Straighter, symmetrical legs
