hi ilizarovgirl
you lengthened 10cm tibia in only one step?
Hi, yes, indeed I did!!! However my right foot went a bit of club foot so it's the only complication I had! Currently I got frame on my foot to make it normal!!  Apart, my left leg and foot-no complications at all, right leg-fine as well!! I need to say its a bit of my fault, the foot, bcuz due to pain I didn't keep foot in the shoe during lengthening so it got inside and stayed this way >:( but It was still worth, I did it when I was 16/17 and to be honest I can't imagine myself living at 151!! even with my job and everything. . |

4 I had surgery in my native country, Poland and surgery was performed by Dr Rajewski, yes, he uses only Ilizarov method! as far as I know only ISKD and Ilizarov are being used in Poland to treat limb length differences and I believe he is the only surgeon who performs cosmetic limb lengthening in Poland |

surgery beggining of July 2009(3rd of If I remember well, its been awhile), I started lengthening after 5 days, the proccess took 100 days( no breaks), frames were removed on 31/03/2010! Then white cast for a few weeks, then plastic cast! around 8th of June my plastic cast was cut so I could start walking. Still had cast on my tibias to support my bones and prevent from breaking. They cut my cast around July but only to give me some freedom so I could wash my legs after 1 year  . I had to use my cast as orthosis to walk(I used to wrap it tight with bandage) till October when they let me walk without any support. 1 year and 3 months in total from surgery to free walking. I have somewhere more dates and my hospital papers but I will have to look for it. |

Is +10cm (+4") possible? If you ever find where and how can you do it, please contact me. I'm around 1'73~1'72 and I think I'd be happy with 1'83~1'82, but if I could just grow those extra 2~3cm I'd be very interested in it. I've talked with a few doctors and they all say 10cm is the max they can do. Cheers. |
