About Hôpital Necker-Enfants Malades
Hôpital Necker-Enfants Malades, an AP-HP public hospital at 149 Rue de Sèvres in Paris, houses a paediatric orthopaedic and trauma surgery department that performs limb lengthening with the PRECICE 2 nail. The surgeon on record is Zagorka Pejin-Arroyo, Praticien hospitalier, paediatric orthopaedic & trauma surgery, AP-HP Hôpital Necker-Enfants Malades (sector 1). Pejin-Arroyo is named in peer-reviewed work on lengthening-nail series and appears on official AP-HP and Necker practitioner pages, EM-consulte author listings, and the Doctolib and lemedecin directories.
This is a paediatric, reconstructive service, not a cosmetic provider. No public price or direct email is published, and no international-patient service is listed. Google shows 3.5 across about 1,800 reviews for the hospital as a whole. As with other French records, the directory withdrew an earlier claim that a distributor had singled out this surgeon as a key PRECICE user; the source named no one.
Verified current via official AP-HP & Necker practitioner pages (authority-body), EM-consulte author listings, Doctolib/lemedecin directories, and independent Spinaxis mention. Reconstructive/paediatric, NOT cosmetic. No public price or direct email — NOT guessed. | reconstructive/reference center — LL via academic record | Added 2026-07-11 via company-research (gap-country pass); codex web-search cross-checked. | RETRACTED 2026-08-13: this record claimed Zagorka Pejin was "named by Spinaxis as a key PRECICE surgeon". The cited page — a PRECICE distributor post of 25 April 2022 — is four sentences announcing 500 nails implanted across France and Luxembourg and thanking surgeons collectively. It names no surgeon at all, in any archived capture, so the claim was never supported even while the link worked. The page has since been deleted. Replaced with peer-reviewed work that does name Zagorka Pejin in a lengthening-nail series.
