Lower limb deformities can affect the alignment, length, stability and function of the legs. They may be present from birth or develop because of growth abnormalities, previous fractures, infection, nonunion, malunion, previous surgery or neuromuscular conditions.

Dr. Vikash Singh is a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon in Karachi specializing in complex lower limb deformity correction in children and adults. Treatment is planned according to the type and severity of the deformity, bone and joint alignment, limb-length difference, previous treatment and functional requirements.

Depending on the deformity and individual patient requirements, correction may involve osteotomy, guided growth, internal fixation, Ilizarov circular fixation, hexapod external fixation or other limb reconstruction techniques. The appropriate method is selected after detailed clinical and radiological assessment.
