How common is nerve damage and long lasting chronic pain within some of the patients here who have done this surgery? Obviously I’d assume chronic pain doesn’t come in until way later but maybe someone here has some information to give?

Literally never heard this. I’ve heard cases slightly similar on the tibia but never through the femur.
