Chronic infection & failed healing
Osteomyelitis & Non-Union Treatment
Treatment of chronic bone infections (osteomyelitis) and fractures that have failed to heal (non-union) in Lahore.
Overview
What this covers
Osteomyelitis — a chronic bone infection — and non-union — where a fracture fails to heal within the expected timeframe — are among the most challenging conditions in orthopaedic surgery. Both require a systematic, staged approach that often combines antibiotic therapy with surgical debridement and, in many cases, further reconstruction. Dr. Hannan's experience with complex trauma and reconstruction at Mayo Hospital and Naseer Hospital provides a strong foundation for managing these difficult cases.
Who it's for
Patients with ongoing bone pain, drainage or swelling after a previous fracture or surgery, or those whose fractures have not shown signs of healing after several months.
What to expect
- Thorough assessment including blood tests, imaging and sometimes biopsy to confirm diagnosis
- Antibiotic therapy tailored to the specific organism where infection is present
- Surgical debridement of infected or non-viable bone tissue
- Reconstruction and stabilisation to promote healing, with staged procedures if needed
