Hello every one.
I could not find Dr Monegal listed in clinica diagonal, and the clinica did not show any cosmetic limb lengthning information in their website. Did any one know why?

To be honest I don't know why Dr Monegal isn't listed in clinica. I investigated google opinions about the clinica. I found this review written 8 months ago
A una familiar la mandaron para casa sabiendo que tenia una bacteria muy infecciosa a riesgo de sepsis, tras haberla cogido en su quirófano después de una operación de fémur.. Todo terminó con la amputación de la pierna en un hospital público... Del médico que la atendió ni hablar... Una verguüenza
I understand there was infection after femur surgery in Clinica Diagonal. This woman was sent home and her leg had to be amputated in another hospital. Does anybody know if she's a cosmetic patient?
Can you get a screenshot and post it before someone says it's fake? It's Google reviews. My screenshots not working.

DISCUSSION ABOUT THIS CASE AND TRANSLATION BY MIRINHEIGHT
Quote from: notatroll on November 15, 2018, 12:04:32 AMI'm asking people (Spanish speakers) to investigate if thad had to do with Monegal. I found this in Clinica Diagonal Google reviews (from 10 months ago)

Even if not related to Monegal It's related to the place where he operates, A Clinica that caused an amputation in a femur surgery because there was a bacteria in OR isn't a good thing.
Quote from: Cinderella on November 15, 2018, 12:16:26 AMYes of course... amputations happen everyday I all hospitals of the world like Mayo Clinic, special Surgery In NY, Saint Mary Hospital, Katmandú hospital..
En Español le llamamos hacer demagogia. Es simple como esto.
It seems like you do your biased research but it is clear you are not in the health field. Bone infection normally occurs throught heamatogenous way. You can search in Wikipedia but basically it is a bacteria migrating from other part of your body and settles in the bone.
It is very disgraced event to occur...but it can happen anywhere.
Or are US hospitals free of infection cases.
Well do your research
Quote from: notatroll on November 15, 2018, 12:23:17 AMAmputations after accidents YES, but this case was a femur surgery that ended in amputation because there was a bacteria in OR. The hospital wasn't clean. VERY BAD. After reading this I feel happy I could keep both legs (although I limp)
No hablar espanol.
Quote from: MirinHeight on November 15, 2018, 12:28:27 AMNo you are wrong. Do you have any idea how rare an amputation is due to a bacteria infection from the OR? All good hospitals/good physicians make sure the OR is as clean as possible. This type of thing only happens at bad hospitals
This means that
1. The OR was not clean enough to operate. Contamination within OR will cause potentially infectious material during surgery
2. Translation: "A family member was sent home knowing that she had a very infectious bacterium at risk of sepsis, after having taken it in her operating room after a femur operation .. It ended with the amputation of the leg in a public hospital ... From the doctor that attended her or speak ... A shame."
The surgeon in charge knew about the infection and still sent her home without treatment, and ultimately the infection ate away tissues of the leg and caused sepsis. This amputation was due to physician negligence, and could be a reason why Monegal's names is not on the website. Something to note.
Even if this was not Monegal, it proves that the hospital he operates at is notorious for hiring incapable/bad physicians.
Can you imagine a story like this happening in the United States and the huge lawsuit that would follow?
The case of amputation is the worst I've read. Remember the man in charge of cleaning OR in Clinica Diagonal is Claudio the FAKE PT (Monegal and non Monegal surgeries). This proves Monegal is surrounded by incompetent and dangerous people. Clinica Diagonal isn't that good if they hire unqualified individuals. I agree Dr Monegal shouldn't do CLL. Nobody should take that risk in Spain. Take care of your limbs
I checked the bacteria story in Google reviews and it indeed happened. I had a good opinion about the Clinica until I read this story. However this kind of stuff happens in many hospitals and we don't know if this was a Monegal's case.
I think Dr Monegal isn't a bad surgeon and he's really nice sometimes with people. However he has indeed extreme mood swings and a very weird behavior for a doctor. He did speak weird stuff about some patients and nurses. I didn't feel safe as a patient. I had a minor complication and I didn't like his attitude at that particular moment. I also know he will be mad when he reads my post. I can't imagine what he's capable of with people like Cooper, Musicmaker or Yagen. They have reasons to be scared.

WOW
nail insertion through the knee; is it correct ?-does it require subsequent operations to fix the knee and avoid permanent pain
Yeah through the knee. I had no problems with knee pain yet but am still in the process. The advantage from what i understand is that this method alllows the nail to distract in the mechanical rather than the anatomical axis, thus avoiding things such as x legs.
Many people have reported limitating and permanent knee pain after retrograde nailing (through the knee). Insertion through the hip (antegrade) is preferred by Dr Paley, Dr Betz, Dr Guichet and other reputable doctors.
Yes guys I'm using the forum to vent out my feelings again but my knee hurts as hell. I haven't been able to sleep for 2 days and couldn't go out from home. I pity those patients who had worse complications than me: Cooper, Musicmaker, American guy, teenage guy and many patients who aren't here in forum. I don't know how this so-called doctor can sleep at night after all the limbs and lives he has destroyed
