people who wish to extend 10cm can consider quadrilateral lengthening (both the femur&tibia extension) since extending too much on one segment is not recommended, and for them to walk without crutches it could take around 7+ months on average.
Hello, you can find more about possible complications after the surgery on our channel here, or also our website: drdonghoon.com/lengthening/limb-lengthening-center/
@ The problem is that I wouldn’t want to travel and reach there just to figure out something that could have been done over the phone. Sickle cell is a category on itself
If money doesn't matter, which one do you think is better in terms of athletic ability, increasing tibia 3cm femur 3cm or femur 5.5cm? I was wondering if you think low extensions are good for each or not touching the tibia at all. In terms of athletic ability
We actually uploaded a video where Dr. Lee discusses this topic in Korean and are planning to subtitle it in English as soon as possible: th-cam.com/video/P5tbkodaA58/w-d-xo.html In short, there isn't definitive research on this specific comparison, especially since it's difficult to collect data (not a lot of people undergo 3cm tibia + 3cm femur.) More research is needed to make a clear conclusion.
Cool
How long does it take to go from 160 to 170?

Hello,
Very important question.
Is this surgery recommended for a patient with sickle cell anemia ?
Hello, every patient will undergo a preoperative test to determine if they’re suitable for the surgery.
