About Mesut Karıksız Limb Lengthening & Deformity Correction Center
Mesut Karıksız runs a private limb-lengthening and deformity-correction centre in Küçükçekmece, Istanbul. He is listed as Op. Dr. — Orthopedics & Traumatology Surgeon, and has a published academic record on lower-extremity lengthening with the PRECICE internal nail. Methods on record are LON, PRECICE 2, Fitbone and Ilizarov; his procedure list extends to leg-length discrepancy, osteomyelitis and joint replacement.
The public record is limited. His own channels use the rank Assoc. Prof., which no university or board page confirms, so the directory lists him under his web-facing title. Verification rests on two cureindia profiles and Google Scholar; Google shows 4.0 from just 4 reviews and there is no Trustpilot presence. The clinic domain could not be reached from any network available to the editors, which may reflect a national access block rather than a closed site. No price, accreditation or international-patient service is published.
Thin verification: 4 Google reviews and no Trustpilot presence. The surgeon’s own channels use "Assoc. Prof.", but this academic rank is not independently confirmed by a university/board page; listed here with his web-facing title, Op. Dr. | LINK STATUS UNRESOLVED 2026-08-13, and deliberately not recorded as dead. leglengtheningturkey.com resolves to 195.175.254.2 from inside Turkey — the national access-block page — so no fetch from this machine can describe the real host. Public DNS does not settle it either: Cloudflare DoH returns NOERROR with no A record, Google DoH returns SERVFAIL, and a US egress could not resolve the name. The site may be gone or may simply be unresolvable from every vantage we have; the block removes our ability to tell. Do not downgrade this clinic on the strength of the local result. Website unreachable on 2026-09-11 (checked from Turkey and a foreign vantage); listing kept pending the next verification round.
