Paediatric Orthopaedics

Our paediatric orthopaedic division provides specialist bone and joint care for children from the newborn period through adolescence, with every treatment decision planned around the child's age, skeletal maturity and stage of growth. As a specialist paediatric orthopaedic hospital in Mumbai, Apex manages congenital deformities, growth plate injuries, developmental conditions and childhood fractures using techniques designed for growing bone not adapted from adult orthopaedic protocols. 

Children's musculoskeletal conditions require a clinical approach that is genuinely distinct from adult orthopaedic care not simply scaled down. Growing bones have open growth plates that are both biologically active and structurally vulnerable.

Risks specific to growing bone include growth plate arrest, limb length discrepancy, angular deformity and the possibility of further surgical intervention during development. For families seeking a specialist paediatric orthopaedic hospital in Mumbai, Apex manages childhood bone and joint conditions across its network with age-specific clinical procedures:  

  • Clubfoot & Congenital Deformity Management: Apex performs non-surgical serial casting using the Ponseti method for clubfoot alongside surgical corrections.  
  • Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH): Apex performs hip reduction and pelvi-femoral osteotomies for pediatric hip dysplasia.   
  • Growth Plate (Physeal) Fracture Care: Apex performs physeal-sparing fracture stabilization to safeguard ongoing skeletal elongation.   
  • Angular & Axial Limb Corrections: Apex performs guided-growth procedures and osteotomies for knock-knees (genu valgum) and bowlegs (genu varum).
