Just got around to watching this video of a lecture Dr Parihar made at an Ilizarov course last year. He talks about how the hexapod works and shows many examples of fixators put on patients by other surgeons, even pointing out mistakes in some of the frames put on by other doctors. A little over a half hour long but very interesting information.

Not very interesting for patients, if you ask me, unless they plan putting on the frames themselves  Dr Mangal Parihar (Mumbai India)- Mangal Anand Hospital Dr Mangal Parihar (Mumbai India)- Mangal Anand Hospital Dr Mangal Parihar (Mumbai India)- Mangal Anand Hospital

I don't know. Having frames on at the moment and having been wanting to get lengthening done for years beforehand, I've become pretty fascinated by the science of Ilizarov fixation.

Does he give discount for surgery? His price is to expensive so if I write diary for him can he go to Dr Shah 8,000 price?

He doesn't give discounts for cosmetic lengthening and it would be insulting to ask him to match another doctor's price. If you can't afford him, then you may want to pay Dr Shah a visit to see if he'll be a good choice for you.

Does anyone know of any developments regarding the availability of the Finnish nail or Guichet nail with Dr. Parihar?

No known time frame on the Finnish nail from the last time I corresponded with him through email, which was mid-October.

Ok. It is probably still a long way from release, then. Did he indicate what price range the nail is expected/hoped to have?

I don't think Dr Parihar will end up going after an Albizzia nail or a variation of it. He might go through with getting Fitbone though. As Polycrates said there's no set timeline for the Finnish nail but he said from speaking with them they seemed open minded in allowing Pitkar to manufacture it to lower costs and he thinks if that happens it will be cheaper than any nail currently on the market.
