[ORT-L] bilateral femoral neck i# n adolescent on haemodialysis	Can't Post

Hello All,

A male 14 y.o., congenital renal anomaly with failure, on chronic
haemodialysis 3 times a week. I am not aware whether kidney
transplanation is considered for him. At the background he broke both
femoral necks 6 months ago. The patient is now still on bed rest in a
local hospital. Local doctors requst advice on orthopaedic management
- is surgery possible? If yes what type of fixation/reconstruction
would be optimal now? Or just mobilization on crutches without
surgery? THX in advance.
