Bone Transport & Regeneration (Distraction Osteogenesis)

Bone loss or severe bone defects can occur due to trauma, infection, tumors, or failed previous surgeries. These conditions often lead to functional limitations, deformities, and difficulty walking or using the affected limb.

At Amdavad Orthopedic Center, we specialize in Bone Transport & Regeneration using Distraction Osteogenesis, an advanced technique that stimulates natural bone growth without the need for major bone grafting. Our expert limb reconstruction surgeons provide safe, precise, and effective treatment for complex bone defects in children and adults.

What is Bone Transport & Regeneration?

Distraction Osteogenesis is a modern orthopedic technique where new bone is gradually formed between bone segments after controlled surgical separation.

This method allows:

✅ Natural bone regeneration
✅ Correction of bone defects
✅ Restoration of limb length
✅ Alignment correction
✅ Joint function improvement

It is highly effective in cases where traditional bone grafting or fixation methods may not work.

Conditions Treated with Bone Transport / Distraction Osteogenesis

At Amdavad Orthopedic Center, we use this technique to treat:

• Large bone defects
• Bone loss due to trauma or accidents
• Infection-related bone destruction (Osteomyelitis)
• Non-union fractures
• Congenital bone deficiency
• Tumor-related bone removal
• Limb length discrepancy
• Malunited or poorly healed fractures

How Does Bone Transport Work?

During surgery:

✅ A controlled cut (osteotomy) is made in the bone
✅ An external or internal device gradually separates the bone segments
✅ New bone naturally forms in the gap
✅ Length and alignment are restored over time

This process promotes healthy, strong, and permanent bone formation.

Benefits of Distraction Osteogenesis

This advanced method offers several advantages:

✅ No major bone graft required
✅ Natural bone formation
✅ Ability to treat large defects
✅ Simultaneous lengthening and alignment correction
✅ High success rate
✅ Suitable for complex cases
✅ Long-lasting results

It is particularly useful when other treatments have failed or are not feasible.
