Manchester’s many hospitals are served by numerous reputable Orthopaedic Departments who deal with the majority of orthopaedic problems and fractures.

However, some orthopaedic problems require a different approach, and, often, different methods of surgery that are not available in district and general hospitals. This is provided by a Limb Reconstruction service.

Limb Reconstruction Surgery is a field within Orthopaedics that focusses on the complications of fractures – such as when bones dont heal or if they heal up at an abnormal angle – as well as naturally occurring deformities, and bone infections.

Manchester Royal Infirmary provides a specialist service in Manchester to deal with these frequently difficult problems, with a team of surgeons, nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists and psychologists.
