Conditions
Pediatric Both Bone Forearm Fractures
Forearm fractures in children and adolescents are common injuries. Treatment of the radius and/or ulna (i.e. the 2 forearm bones) depends on the age of the patient, the location within these bones, and the amount of displacement.
Know MorePediatric Supracondylar Humerus Fractures
Supracondylar fractures of the humerus are the most common type of elbow fractures in children and adolescents. This is because the end of the humerus bone, just above the joint and the growth plates, is wafer-thin.
Know MorePediatric Wrist Fractures
Wrist fractures in the pediatric population are very common, usually the result of falling during play or minor trauma sustained during sports activities.
Know MoreBow leggedness and Knock Knees
Lower limb alignment follows a predictable pattern. Infants typically have a gentle vaus bow (i.e. Bowleggedness) throughout the femur and tibia.
Know MoreChondromalacia Patella
Pain in the front of the knee and around the patella (i.e. the kneecap) is a common occurrence in the growing child as well as in the adolescent years. There are numerous factors that contribute to the development of this pain syndrome.
Know MoreFlatfeet in Children and Adolescents
Nearly all toddlers have “collapsed archs” upon standing causing the “ankles to roll in” and the feet to “out-toe”. A “flexible” flatfoot is considered a variation of normal in which the arch reappears when the child sits or goes up on his/her tiptoes.
Know MoreIntoeing
Rotational and angular deformities of the lower extremities are common concerns of parents that result in the Pediatrician’s referral to a Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeon.
Know MoreOsgood-Schlatter Syndrome
In Osgood-Schlatter disease, children have pain at the front of the knee due to inflammation of the growth plate at the upper end of the tibia (shinbone).
Know MoreSever's Calcaneal Apophysitis
Sever's disease is one of most common causes of heel pain in children, and often occurs during adolescence when children hit a growth spurt.
Know MoreAdolescent Sports Injuries
Sports injuries occur when playing indoor or outdoor sports or while exercising. Sports injuries can result from accidents, inadequate training, improper use of protective devices, or insufficient stretching or warm-up exercises.
Know MorePediatric Fractures
Fractures are more common in children due to their activities as well as their bone properties. Children are more active than adults and management of fractures in them also differs as compared to that in adults.
Know MorePediatric ACL Tears
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a ligament that provides stability, reduces stress and prevents the knee from rotating or slipping out of position while jumping, running and landing.
Know MoreShoulder Dislocation
The shoulder joint is a ball and socket joint. A ball at the top of the upper arm bone (humerus) fits neatly into a socket, called the glenoid, which is part of the shoulder blade (scapula).
Know MoreLimb Deformity
Limb deformities can be congenital or develop at a later stage because of a fracture, infection, arthritis or tumor.Congenital deformities of the lower limbs are developmental disorders that cause alterations in the shape and appearance of the legs.
Know MoreBenign Musculoskeletal Tumors
Musculoskeletal tumors are masses or lumps of tissue that develop in or spread to the musculoskeletal system as a result of abnormal and uncontrollable cell division. The musculoskeletal system includes the bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, and nerves.
