Does anyone know if the new NuVasive Precise Plate, which was used for the first time in September by Paley, could be used on Adults, in theory? It was designed specifically for children to avoid damaging their bodies with the internal rods and giant nails.
It is an internal method that does not require metal rods and nails hammered into you. It can only lengthen a max of 4.5 cm and is not weight bearing. But I believe for Tibias it would be insanely overpowered. Getting 4 / 4.5 cm gains in Tibias with no metal rods, giant nails or crazy external frames pinned into you could mean an almost perfect recovery of athletic ability while getting a good boost in height. You would be bedridden / wheelchair ridden for quite a long time, but the idea of avoiding long term problems could make it worth it.

Hell, maybe you could even do femurs and tibias simultaneously if this concept worked. Without the internal metal rods there should not be a risk of fat embolism doing both at the same time AFAIK. Getting 4.5 cm on each segment would be an easy 9 cm without rod removal, nails causing permanent hip & knee pain etc. I guess one of the questions would be whether it can keep the mechanical axis stable, although only 4.5 cm might limit that problem.
Is that better than precisa 2.3 and stryde?? But I can see tons of nails going to the bone 
Stryde look better: https://medcraze.com/tech/nuvasive-precice-strydenail/
CLL will be demanded from all those chinese retards who think their average is 190cm, yet they are 185 cm and "feeling short". This will happen in 5 years max. Note it down.
I think it would be it or CLL will be done normally and it would be also used for models, sports and etc. When it gets to the point of full recovery
I believe that we could have internal nails that monitor the progression of the procedure, helping to avoid early consolidation or no unions. Also, I hope that this becomes cheaper and more safe (now is very safe, but I mean even more safe), so more people can get it done.
Yeah true, hope it gets normal to the point of implants and plastic surgeries involving face bones. And also cheaper, cause 100 USD is too much

In some ways, it will be a negative if this surgery becomes too normal and easy because it will mean that more people including tall people will undergo the procedure thus increasing the average height and that is ultimately a negative for those of us that are below average.
You're totally right. I wanted to say that it shouldn't be this tabu/mith that it is today. Feels like those crazy old movies about crazy surgeons perfoming weird surgeries, but this surgery is done A LOT for leg discrepancy, dwarfism, and etc. But I think that people will realize at some point that height doens't matter that much, acctually being tall is awful, and being short is good, like: airplane sits, inside a car, beds, cinema, etc.

Yeah your totally right people who are well over average height will get the surgery if it becomes cheaper and more safer. This result is inevitable if the surgery does become cheaper

Some of them even post here. 
Good thing it won't get cheaper.
