Cerebral palsy is a static injury to the developing brain, but its effects evolve as children grow.

Dr. Alexa Karkenny explains how early injuries to the brain can lead to challenges with muscle tightness, hip positioning, knee mobility, foot alignment, and even scoliosis as kids move through growth spurts.

Our pediatric orthopedic surgeons at Montefiore Einstein address these downstream effects — helping children maintain mobility, reduce pain, and reach their functional goals alongside their families.

Honored to support patients through every stage of growth with compassionate, specialized care.

Dr. Henstenburg recently spent time in the Montefiore Einstein education simulation lab working with our orthopedic residents as they learned how to place pedicle screws — a critical skill in spine surgery. Using a model built by Drs. Martin Levy and Jaime Gomez, residents had the opportunity to practice technique, hand positioning, and safe instrumentation in a controlled environment before ever stepping into the operating room.

This immersive laboratory training is a key part of how we prepare future surgeons. Under expert guidance and with innovative tools developed right here at Montefiore Einstein, our residents gain the precision, confidence, and clinical judgment needed to deliver exceptional patient care.

Dr. David Geller’s patient, Jose, has faced an extraordinary journey. Over four years, he underwent seven leg surgeries to address the complex orthopedic challenges that followed a childhood cancer diagnosis. Today, he’s walking independently — no cane, no crutch — and has received a clean bill of health!

His progress reflects both his resilience and the collaborative, highly specialized care delivered by Dr. Geller and our orthopedic team at Montefiore Einstein.

Dr. Alexa Karkenny returned to the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia as the Alumni Spotlight lecturer for CHOP’s Fall Visiting Professor Day. She presented “Old Diseases, New Perspectives”—a deep look at recognizing nutritional rickets, vitamin D deficiency, and scurvy in pediatric orthopaedic practice, along with emerging research on how vitamin D status may influence fracture risk.

Dr. Karkenny also connected with CHOP colleagues and alumni, including Dr. Kathleen Maguire and current pediatric orthopaedic fellow Dr. Allyn Morris—continuing a shared commitment to advancing pediatric musculoskeletal care.

As cartilage wears down, joint pain and stiffness can become unavoidable. Dr. Zachary Berliner highlights how anterior approach total hip arthroplasty and minimally invasive robotic-assisted knee replacement replace the damaged ball-and-socket surfaces to restore smooth function.

Endoscopic spine surgery represents the evolution of minimally invasive care, using a tiny incision about half the size of a thumbnail and a camera-guided scope to reach and relieve pressure on spinal nerves.

This approach allows surgeons like Dr. Mitchell Fourman to remove herniated discs or bone fragments through an incision less than an inch long, often in under an hour, with many patients going home the same day.

World-class orthopedic care, right here in the Bronx.

A smaller incision. A faster recovery. A better patient experience.
