Descripción
Sumario:This is a case describing a 13-year-old female student having a history of a fall-developed wound over the anterior aspect of the right leg with discharging sinus treated as chronic osteomyelitis and operated and distal tibia corticotomy and Ilizarov fixation was done. The patient was full of complications, but full limb lengthening was restored with follow-up. The Ilizarov frame's proper installation and the middle segment's efficient transportation are essential variables in reducing the likelihood of the transported segment deviating.
