Hey guys, which method do you think is the best for CLL? I think precise2 only internal nail is the best method for both femur and tibia.

I went for classic ilizarov because it was the only one I could afford.
I feel like people here often forget that money is also a factor you need to take in consideration

Stryde > Precice2 > LON. You are right. Precice2 is better.

Τhe safest, cheapest and most painless way for tibias, as we said many times, is externals only. By far.

I think only a person who did both tibia with external and tibia with internal nail could answer this.
No one can compare the experience without having gone through it.

Sorry a bit off topic but is it correctly understood that:

Pure externals = no nails.
LON = lengthening over nail = purely internal methods like precise and stryde.
LATN = lengthening and then nailing = external method with nailing after lengthening.

I would also love to know how you get the impression that externals are less painful than internal?

Because I did it and it was an almost fully painless experience after the first 3-4 days. I've never seen anyone with internals to say the same. Most of them are getting a lot of painkillers during their lengthening, I did't take almost anything except the first very few days and still I can't say I felt any pain at least more than 2/10.
And it is common sense that having some pins is less painful than having a big rod inside your bone.
