Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Congenital upper limb Amelia is one of the extremely rare conditions in the world. Defined as complete absence of a limb which may present as isolated defect or as a part of syndrome with associated anomalies. PRESENTATION OF THE CASE: We report a case of a medically free 6-year-old boy with bilateral upper limb Amelia associated with right thoracolumbar idiopathic Scoliosis. DISCUSSION: Treatment for early onset scoliosis includes either posterior spinal fusion and instrumentation, or Vertical Expandable Prosthetic Titanium Rib (VEPTR). The choice of care for our patient was decided to be VEPTR alone as definitive management. Up to our knowledge, there are very scanty articles published regarding treatment for such cases. CONCLUSION: Patient underwent vertical expandable prosthetic titanium rib (VEPTR) application for his large 45-degree curve as a definitive treatment and still have his preoperative physical functions, in terms of using lower limbs in daily living activities.
