Leg up for Olivia

Olivia has congenital Pseudarthrosis of the fibula. She is 3 years old. We saw the doctor in Florida that knows so much about her condition. We found out hers is 1 in a million! Crazy how rare it is! She will be having two surgeries this October. They will be two weeks apart. The first will to lengthen her fibula 10mm. We will have to turn a pin 1mm every day to do this. Then in two weeks she will under go a major surgery on her leg. (She had one summer 2014 that failed) This one will hopefully fix her broken fibula that has been broken since she was 7 months old.
Pseudarthrosis (commonly referred to as a nonunion or false joint) is a bone fracture that has no chance of mending without intervention. In pseudarthrosis the body perceives bone fragments as separate bones and does not attempt to unite them.

Congenital pseudarthrosis of the limb most commonly involves the tibia, although various combinations of bones including fibula, radius, ulna, clavicle and humerus have all been described.
