What is Limb Preservation Surgery?

Limb preservation surgery is a specialized orthopedic procedure aimed at saving a limb affected by injury, tumor, infection, or congenital abnormalities. Unlike amputation, which removes the limb entirely, limb salvage surgery focuses on removing diseased tissue and reconstructing the bone and soft tissue to retain natural function.

Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh, a leading orthopedic surgeon, has extensive experience in limb preservation techniques. Each surgery is carefully planned using advanced imaging and diagnostics, ensuring optimal functional and aesthetic results. Patients benefit not only from limb retention but also improved mobility and long-term quality of life.

    Types of Limb Salvage Surgery

    Bone Tumor Resection and Reconstruction

    This procedure removes tumors while preserving healthy bone and tissue. Bone defects are reconstructed using grafts or prosthetic implants.

    Vascularized Bone Grafts

    Vascularized bone grafts are used to replace large sections of bone while maintaining blood supply, ensuring faster healing and long-term success.

    Rotationplasty

    Rotationplasty is often performed in young patients with tumors near the knee. The lower limb is rotated and reattached to improve functionality with prosthetic support.

    Soft Tissue Reconstruction

    Soft tissue repair complements bone reconstruction to ensure stability, coverage, and normal limb function. Techniques include skin flaps, muscle transfers, and synthetic grafts.

    Endoprosthetic Reconstruction

    Custom metal implants replace bone segments removed during tumor surgery, providing long-lasting durability and mobility.

    4 Steps to Limb Preservation Surgery

    Step 1: Consultation & Evaluation

    Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh assesses your condition with a physical exam and imaging to determine if limb salvage surgery is suitable.

    Step 2: Personalized Surgical Plan

    A tailored plan is created, including the type of limb salvage surgery, expected outcomes, and surgery cost.

    Step 3: Surgery

    Advanced techniques are used to remove diseased tissue and reconstruct the limb, ensuring maximum function and limb preservation.

    Step 4: Rehabilitation & Follow-Up

    Structured post-surgery care, including physiotherapy and regular check-ups, ensures optimal healing and recovery.

    Post-Surgery Rehabilitation

    Rehabilitation is an essential part of limb preservation surgery. A multidisciplinary team helps patients regain mobility, strength, and function:

    ●   Physiotherapy: Exercises to restore movement and flexibility

    ●   Occupational Therapy: Assistance with daily activities and adaptive techniques

    ●   Pain Management: Control of discomfort and inflammation

    ●   Prosthetic Training: If required, patients learn to use prosthetics efficiently

    ●   Regular Monitoring: Follow-ups to check bone healing, implant stability, and soft tissue health

    A structured rehabilitation program ensures patients achieve full functional recovery and long-term limb preservation.
