Pediatric fracture surgery is an operation to realign and stabilise a broken bone in a child or adolescent when a cast or splint alone will not produce a good result. It is recommended when a fracture is significantly displaced, involves a joint surface or growth plate, is unstable, or has broken through the skin. Depending on the bone affected and the child's age, the surgeon may use thin metal pins, plates, screws, flexible rods inserted inside the bone, or an external frame to hold the pieces in position while they heal. Children's bones heal faster than adult bones and have the ability to correct minor imperfections as they grow, so recovery is generally quicker — but special care is taken to protect the growth plates, which guide how bones lengthen over time. Most children return to school within a couple of weeks and to full activity within about three months.
The surgeon realigns the bone through the skin without a large incision, then passes thin metal pins through the skin to hold it in place — a cast is applied on top.
Estimated cost: ~$300 – $500
Typical tests for this variant: X-ray of the affected bone (AP and lateral views), CBC and coagulation profile (PT/INR), Blood group and crossmatch, Serum electrolytes, kidney function tests, Random blood glucose, Pediatric anesthesia fitness assessment. Done in India before hospital admission.
Estimated cost in India: $4,000 – $6,000
Pre-procedure stay (outside hospital): ~1 days
Hospitalisation: ~4 days
Recovery period (outside hospital): ~5 days recommended
Total stay: approx 10 days
The surgeon makes an incision to directly expose and reposition the fracture, then holds the bone firmly in place with metal plates, screws, or wires.
Estimated cost: ~$300 – $500
Typical tests for this variant: X-ray of the affected bone (AP and lateral views), CT scan of fracture site (for intra-articular or complex patterns), CBC and coagulation profile (PT/INR), Blood group and crossmatch, Serum electrolytes, kidney function tests, Random blood glucose, Pediatric anesthesia fitness assessment. Done in India before hospital admission.
Estimated cost in India: $5,500 – $8,000
Pre-procedure stay (outside hospital): ~1 days
Hospitalisation: ~6 days
Recovery period (outside hospital): ~7 days recommended
Total stay: approx 14 days
Flexible metal rods are passed through the inside of the bone from small incisions near each end, acting as internal splints — widely used for femur and long-bone fractures in school-aged children.
Estimated cost: ~$300 – $500
Typical tests for this variant: X-ray of the affected bone (AP and lateral views), CBC and coagulation profile (PT/INR), Blood group and crossmatch, Serum electrolytes, kidney function tests, Random blood glucose, Pediatric anesthesia fitness assessment. Done in India before hospital admission.
Estimated cost in India: $6,000 – $9,000
Pre-procedure stay (outside hospital): ~1 days
Hospitalisation: ~6 days
Recovery period (outside hospital): ~7 days recommended
Total stay: approx 14 days
Pins are placed into the bone above and below the fracture and connected to a frame outside the limb — used for severe open fractures or when the soft tissues are too damaged for internal hardware.
Estimated cost: ~$300 – $500
Typical tests for this variant: X-ray of the affected bone (AP and lateral views), CT scan of fracture and surrounding soft tissue (if high-energy trauma), CBC and coagulation profile (PT/INR), Blood group and crossmatch, Serum electrolytes, kidney function tests, Random blood glucose, Wound culture and sensitivity (if open fracture with contamination), Pediatric anesthesia fitness assessment. Done in India before hospital admission.
Estimated cost in India: $6,500 – $9,500
Pre-procedure stay (outside hospital): ~1 days
Hospitalisation: ~7 days
Recovery period (outside hospital): ~10 days recommended
Total stay: approx 18 days
