Hello,
My baby who is now 14 months was born with agenesia of the left leg. He
has a pretty functional L hip but unfortunately his femur is very short.
This makes him equivalent to a child with hip disarticulation. I have been
working with a prosthesist without much success. The leg is cosmetic but
not functionnal. Do you know any specialist in prosthesis for baby. I live
in New York.
Thank You
Valerie Allusson, M.D.
