About Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York performs limb reconstruction inside its orthopaedic oncology service rather than through a dedicated lengthening programme. Daniel E. Prince, MD, MPH, Associate Attending Surgeon on the Orthopaedic Service at MSK Kids, is a Limb Lengthening and Reconstruction Society member with peer-reviewed output on distraction osteogenesis after bone sarcoma resection, motorized intramedullary nails and plate-assisted bone segment transport. Patients are seen at 1275 York Avenue, the Rockefeller Outpatient Pavilion and MSK Westchester.
Scope is the thing to understand before contacting MSK: this is oncologic limb salvage only, for adults and children with bone tumours, and never cosmetic lengthening. MSK has no limb lengthening service page. No device is recorded under methods, and the hospital publishes no price, no international patient pathway and no review data for this work.
Adult and paediatric, but ONCOLOGIC limb salvage only — referrals are for bone tumours. Never for cosmetic lengthening. MSK has no dedicated limb lengthening service page; the capability sits inside orthopaedic oncology. Added 2026-08-12 in the US roster expansion; provenance in docs/research/us-expansion-2026-08/.
Why we listed this clinic
Dr Prince is a Limb Lengthening and Reconstruction Society member with extensive peer-reviewed output on distraction osteogenesis after bone sarcoma resection, motorized intramedullary nails and plate-assisted bone segment transport. Dr. Prince's own MSK profile frames distraction osteogenesis/bone transport explicitly as an oncologic limb-salvage option that can end in full hardware removal and unrestricted activity — reinforcing that this record is for cancer-related limb reconstruction only, never cosmetic stature lengthening.

Common questions about Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
Answers are built from this clinic's verified record — not from the clinic's marketing.
How much does limb lengthening cost at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center?
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center does not publish a price, and we do not invent one. Comparable USA clinics in this directory range widely by method; use the cost estimator or contact the clinic for a written quote before travelling.
Which limb lengthening methods does Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center offer?
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center has not publicly listed which lengthening device it uses. Ask directly — the device (internal nail vs external frame) changes cost, recovery and risk profile.
What does recovery look like after surgery at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center?
Distraction runs at roughly 1 mm per day for 4–8 weeks, consolidation takes another 3–6 months while the new bone hardens, and physiotherapy-led return to full activity is usually 6–12 months from surgery. The clinic has not published which device it uses, and the recovery curve depends on it — internal nails and external frames differ materially.
Does Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center treat international patients?
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center did not explicitly advertise international-patient services on its website when we verified it. Consultation languages on record: English. Confirm travel logistics, translation and follow-up arrangements directly before booking.
