Comprehensive yet accessible, it is sensibly divided into dedicated sections on pediatrics, foot and ankle, trauma and post-traumatic reconstruction, adult deformity, tumor and upper extremity interventions. Each of the more than 450 unique cases includes color photographs and radiographs from before, during and after surgery, and follow a consistent chapter structure that outlines a brief clinical history of the case, preoperative problem list, treatment strategy, basic principles, technical pearls and how to avoid and manage complications and subsequent problems. Suggested readings round out each case. A comprehensive presentation of techniques is featured, including external fixation, internal fixation, combination approaches, fully implantable limb lengthening nails, various techniques of bone transport for skeletal defects, and osseointegration limb replacement surgery.

He is the director of the LLCRS fellowship program which includes recruitment and year-long training of exceptional young surgeons interested in pursuing a career in the subspecialty of Limb Deformity. In addition, surgeons from various regions in the United States and from around the globe come to New York to rotate with Dr. Fragomen for month-long visiting-professor observer-ships to broaden how they approach complex orthopedic challenges. Feedback from these observers includes amazement with the volume of Limb Deformity patients treated in Dr. Fragomen’s clinic and his ability to spend time with each person to ensure that the patient remains the focus of the practice.
With over 150 publications, research has been central to ensuring the highest quality patient care including surgical decision making and has given Dr. Fragomen a voice nationally and worldwide.

Dr. Fragomen maintains a prospective database of all the surgeries he has performed for use in later analysis to finds trends in patient care. This data then drives future decision making to optimize surgery and post operative protocols ensuring the best possible outcomes and patient satisfaction.
