The Russian Ilizarov Scientific Center for Restorative Traumatology and Orthopedics or RISC RTO (Russian: Российский научный центр «Восстановительная травматология и ортопедия» имени академика Г. А. Илизарова) is a medical institution located in the city of Kurgan, Kurgan Oblast, Russia; and financed by the Russian Federal State. The centre is the largest in the world that specializes in the treatment of complex orthopaedic problems.

It is named after the orthopedic surgeon Gavriil Abramovich Ilizarov who invented the Ilizarov apparatus, which is a method of transosseous osteosynthesis or Ilizarov method for the surgical procedure to lengthen or reshape limb bones.

Every year over 9,000 people receive treatment and rehabilitation at the RISC RTO. Patients of any country and age group can apply for treatment at the RISC RTO. The centre is registered as one of the largest hospitals in the world and has the ability to treat up to 1,000 patients at any time.

As at mid-2010, Professor Vladimir I. Shevtsov was the General Director of the centre and taught the application of the Ilizarov methods in numerous countries including the US, United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Japan, and South Korea.
