Setting the standard in treating Hemohilia

At LuskinOIC’s Orthopaedic Hemophilia Treatment Center (OHTC), we set the standard in treating hemophilia joint and limb issues. In 1970, OHTC was designated by the World Federation of Hemophilia as one of the first four International Hemophilia Training Centers.

We’ve consistently been pioneers for our patients: we were the first comprehensive care center on the West Coast, we performed the first successful hip replacement surgery in a patient with hemophilia, and through clinical trials we have been providing the newest treatments available.

In addition to treatment, we conduct groundbreaking research, provide innovative and personalized physical therapy, and offer genetic counseling for patients and their families.

Why LuskinOIC for Hand Injuries and Congenital Hand Differences?

It’s easy to take the hands and wrists for granted—until one of them isn’t working properly. If your child has a hand injury, the tendons, ligaments, muscles, bones or joints that make up their hands and wrists may stop functioning correctly.

For congenital hand differences, every child is unique, and treatment is based on each child’s individual needs. The primary objective and benefit of treatment for congenital hand differences are centered on enhancing the child's functional capacity. Additionally, the aim is to enhance the appearance of the affected hand, improving the child's self-esteem and confidence.

Surgery for children with hand trauma or hand differences should be done by a highly skilled pediatric orthopedic hand doctor, who is experienced in surgical repairing the many tiny bones in the hand and wrist.

Our Approach to Congenital Hand Differences

Congenital hand differences are frequently diagnosed through prenatal ultrasound examinations. The precise cause of many hand deformities remains unknown, making prevention challenging. 

While treatment cannot commence until after birth, an early diagnosis enables parents to prepare for necessary interventions. Our physicians offer prenatal consultations to assist families in planning for treatment, which typically commences during the early years of the child's life. At LuskinOIC, doctors also conduct postnatal assessments immediately after birth to identify any hand abnormalities. 

Evaluation of hand deformities involves a comprehensive physical examination by an orthopedist, assessing the shape, mobility, and functionality of the hand, fingers, wrist, and forearm. Associated deformities in the opposite hand, legs, and spine may also be examined, with additional specialist consultations sought if necessary.

X-rays play a crucial role in diagnosis, revealing any missing, shortened, or fused bones in the hand or arm. Comparison X-rays of the opposite hand aid in assessment, while imaging of the legs and spine may be necessary to identify associated abnormalities common in certain conditions.
