Ilizarov Fixation at Legend Hospitals

 

At Legend Hospitals, we specialize in Ilizarov Fixation, an advanced orthopedic technique used for limb lengthening, complex fracture management, deformity correction, and non-union fractures. This external fixation method provides stability, precise bone realignment, and controlled bone growth, ensuring optimal recovery for patients with severe orthopedic conditions.


What is Ilizarov Fixation?

The Ilizarov Fixator is an external ring fixator system that consists of metal rings, wires, and rods to stabilize bones and promote gradual bone healing. It is widely used for:

Complex fractures that are difficult to fix with traditional methods.
Bone deformity correction in congenital or acquired conditions.
Limb lengthening procedures for patients with limb length discrepancies.
Non-union and malunion fractures that fail to heal properly.
Bone infections (Osteomyelitis) requiring external stabilization.


Conditions Treated with Ilizarov Fixation

1. Limb Lengthening

  • Used for congenital short limbs, post-traumatic limb shortening, or growth-related conditions.
  • Gradual distraction allows new bone formation (distraction osteogenesis).

2. Complex & Open Fractures

  • Effective in treating severe fractures, multiple fractures, and compound fractures.
  • Ensures bone stability and alignment while reducing soft tissue damage.

3. Bone Deformity Correction

  • Used in correcting conditions like bow legs (genu varum), knock knees (genu valgum), and clubfoot.
  • Provides precise control over bone realignment during the healing process.

4. Non-Union and Malunion Fractures

  • Helps in treating fractures that fail to heal (non-union) or heal in incorrect positions (malunion).
  • Encourages new bone formation and proper alignment.

5. Bone Infections and Osteomyelitis

  • Used in cases of severe bone infections where internal fixation is not suitable.
  • Promotes infection control and bone regeneration while stabilizing the limb.

Advantages of Ilizarov Fixation

Minimally Invasive: Requires small surgical incisions, reducing soft tissue damage.
Highly Adjustable: Allows gradual and precise bone lengthening and alignment.
Supports Weight Bearing: Patients can move with partial weight-bearing during treatment.
Promotes Natural Bone Healing: Uses the body’s own regenerative ability for new bone growth.
Effective for Complex Cases: Works well for severe deformities, infections, and failed previous surgeries.
