Polio Treatment

Millions of people are suffering from Post Polio Deformities. These deformities can be corrected by famous Ilizarov method of surgery. The latest trend is to use SUV – Advanced Software Based HEXAPOD FRAME to treat Polio and CP. The patients are psychologically motivated and they become friendly with the apparatus.
Common deformities in Polio patients and benefits of correction :-

• People walking with hands on their thigh – If they don’t keep the hand on their thigh, they fall down. After ILIZAROV treatment they can walk without hand on their thigh and without Calipers.
• People with shortened polio-tic limbs – The shortened limb can be lengthened.
• People with their heels lifted from the ground while walking – After treatment heels start touching the ground and patient can walk for longer distances with less energy.
• Hanging Limb – Many patients who haven’t touched the ground while walking, can walk on the concerned limb.
• Deformed and small feet can also be corrected with ILIZAROV.
• Lurch (Jhatka) while walking. After operation, this can also be corrected.
• Shorten Leg – Some patients have thin leg, which can be shaped or their girth can be increased.
