As precice 2 can not bear weight can we do lengthening with precice and then replace it with a standard J&J femur fracture nail which can bear weight if you are < 65 kg.

It’s probably possible, but sounds like a lot of extra trauma and surgical cost if you are paying out of pocket, instead of just waiting patiently for an extra few weeks.
