Dr. Malcolm Debaun
Overview
I have been blessed with the opportunity to serve my community. I specialize in treating fractures of the upper and lower extremity as well as in the pelvis/acetabulum and periarticular injuries. I love to manage the most challenging cases for patients, including complex fracture revision surgery, nonunion, malunion, and osteomyelitis. In addition, I also specialize in adult limb lengthening and deformity correction. I believe in the restoration of anatomy after injury using biomechanical principles and minimally invasive techniques for maximum clinical benefit to the patient. My surgeries utilize the most cutting-edge technology, techniques, and implants to create the best possible outcome for my patients. My goal is to return my patients to their pre-injury lifestyle and promote mental, physical, and spiritual wellness.

Clinical Research

Providers who actively participate in clinical research are generally at the forefront of the fields and aware of the most up-to-date advances in treatments for their patients.
Duke Ambulatory Surgery Center
I am an orthopaedic surgeon who is the chief of hand surgery at Duke. Although we are referred to as “hand surgeons,” I treat many people with wrist and elbow conditions. Because the hand is so complex, patients who see me can have complaints that range from numbness and weakness to issues with range of motion. My grandfather, my grandmother, my mother and my father were all health care workers. I have wanted to be a surgeon since I watched M*A*S*H on the television as a child. I obtain great satisfaction from treating someone who has a very severe hand or arm injury, reconstructing the part and restoring its basic function. Duke has been the strongest hand surgery program in the country for the past 50 to 75 years. As chair of the program, I want patients to know that the best and the brightest providers are seeing them when they come to Duke.
