So apparently his website from the OP has been hacked.
Have any diaries come out of this Dr. yet?
And can someone please explain what plating is exactly?
ETA: I just read this about it http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22083361
Shorter consolidation phase but "associated with a high incidence of varus deformity" doesn't sound good to me.
Hey Andrew!
Thanks for letting us know about the website hacking. I contacted the doctor and the problem with the website is resolved.
I have a Fitbone Femur Diary with Dr.Inan. I'm his only patient so far who wrote a diary on international forums. He has a couple of patients writing on local (Turkish) websites.

On the other hand, plate fixation seems to have a lower incidence of malalignment than nailing.

Guys, has anyone contacted Dr.Inan for surgery? Today we had a phone conversation and he told me that he recently had email conversations with 4 international patients. The emails got erased by accident, so if anyone has contacted him previously, please just send another email. Thanks

I think if you are looking to do the classic method of external only this seems to be a good option. Do other people feel the same way? I might try to go to him, is anyone else considering this? If a person could rent an apartment accommodation cost wouldn't be that high either. If anyone knows anything or is interested in him let me know maybe we could go around the same time and contact each other. Thanks.
Is Dr. Inan's LON price only for tibiae, or can he also do LON femurs for the same price?

It's the same price for femurs.
Wow, now that is definitely a tantalizing price for femurs. Would you happen to know about how many weeks of physiotherapy would be necessary for a LON femoral lengthening procedure?

It really depends on the amount of lengthening. I did physiotherapy 5 days a week throughout lengthening and continued even after the lengthening stopped. Some patients choose to do physiotherapy themselves, others work with a physiotherapist.
