Surgical procedure Enables Patient to Walk
A medical team at King Khalid Hospital in Tabuk successfully regained the ability to walk for a female patient in her fifties after years of complicated fracture in her right thigh bone that failed to heal. The injury had resulted in an 8-centimeter leg length discrepancy and loss of walking ability. The four-hour surgery involved removing the non-healed fracture site, reconstructing the bone using a combination of autologous bone graft and synthetic bone material, and stabilizing the bone with a double plate. The procedure restored the leg length, improved limb function and knee mobility, and the patient regained full weight-bearing capacity. The treatment achieved complete fracture healing and equalized both lower limbs.
