Background

Franck Chotel is a professor and head of the paediatric orthopaedic and trauma surgery department at Hospices Civils de Lyon's Hôpital Femme Mère Enfant in Bron, and a faculty member at Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1. He is listed on the department's current medical team page, which treats congenital limb malformations — including axial correction and lengthening — in infants, children and adolescents. He trained Dr. Antoine Geffroy of Nantes and has authored numerous peer-reviewed papers on paediatric orthopaedics, though his recent personal focus has shifted toward paediatric knee and sports surgery, with limb lengthening sitting at the departmental rather than his individual headline level today.
