Limb lengthening with external fixation is performed to treat patients with leg length discrepancy or short stature. Although the procedure has a high rate of success, one potential drawback from limb lengthening is the amount of time spent in the fixation device while regenerate bone consolidates.

We present a case of an immense unprecedented tibial bone lengthening of 33.5 cm. The management of chronic osteomyelitis of the right tibia with subtotal tibial bone defect, talus defect and equinus ankle deformity. We demonstrate limb reconstruction by distraction osteogenesis and correction of ankle deformity with the Ilizarov technique. Limb salvage was preferred as an alternative to amputation to restore basic limb function.
