1/25/24, 3:04 PM Nine-Piece Severe Heel Fracture Successfully Treated at Saudi German Hospital Makkah, Enabling Patient to Walk | MENAFN.C…
Dr. Muhammad Abdullah Mahfouz, an orthopedic and joint surgeon, along with the medical
team, decided to repair the fracture through a bone graft and artificial bone implantation.
After a CT scan, the doctors discovered a severe heel fracture of nine fragments, leading
them to conduct a bone graft from the pelvic bones.
This procedure addressed the patient’s persistent swelling and pain, stabilized the fractured
heel, restored its normal function and ultimately regained full mobility in the foot.
