A two-year-old boy from Marfleet, Hull, Carson Lees, undergoes surgery after living with a broken leg for about a year. Multiple outlets report that the child has congenital pseudarthrosis (CPT), a rare skeletal condition in which bones can be weak and prone to fractures. The reports say the leg fracture occurs when he is about 14 months old, shortly after he is diagnosed with the condition. Because of the underlying bone disorder, the fracture does not heal in the usual way, and he continues to live with the injury until surgery can be carried out.
The Daily Record and other sources describe the operation as a major procedure lasting around five hours. They frame the surgery as a response to the prolonged fracture linked to CPT. While the articles focus on the child’s medical condition and the timeline from initial fracture to surgery, they do not provide further details on the surgical method or expected recovery in the material provided.
