Quote from: Cooper on March 25, 2016, 12:23:59 AMHe has not done many LL. All the ones I know except one femoral did not have any complication. I was personally in touch with 4 and 3 of them have some sort of complication and if you count me that will be 4 patients with complication. Some of them have major one and not sure if they will ever back walk to normal.

He coach his patient (especially from Spain) to write in a style and potrays him as competent surgeon. And he is not!

To clarify, when you say except on femoral did not have any complication, I presume from the rest of the quote you mean that only one person avoided complications, with the other three suffering some sort of complication? If I can press you more, was this simply a loose screw, or something more serious?

Not a Mod but,

I still supported the ban against LLUSER1 for the simple reason that he was a spazz. Constantly spamming another person's diary, Monegal patient or not, with non-vadilated anti-Monegal post. Obviously now we see that he had some definitive truth to his claims, but his method/attitude for how he tried to justify his claims were without a doubt annoying and worth punishment.

As for now. We'll see what the mods do.

Yes only one patient did not complain. All the rest has some sort of issues. The part worries me is he does not recognize the mistake and fights really hard to make his point and he is right. Dr. Rozbruch is top surgeon and he thinks his recommendation has flaws and not necessary. Dr. Paley and other top Doctor all saw the issue with my right leg. For Monegal it was normal. He clearly have no idea or knowledge. He did not even recognize the issue. All he could say Is everything will be alright. Such a false hope on desperate time.

I took silical boost and vitamin d. Lengthen merely 5cm. And still non Union on tibia and fibula bone. Just did not get it. Callous formation is also heavily dependent upon surgeon technique of osteotomy.

I was within safe boundary, regular PT, vitamins and good diet still has major issues. Careful guys this is not joke. And please do lot of research. If you have any doubt regarding surgeon than do not do it.

Jeez man...Cooper so sorry to hear about your issues...I hope you eventually recover man. I'm sure you will. It will take time, but you will be ok bro Fitbone Stage Right Tibia Lenghtening (Dr. Monegal), Barcelona, Spain

Scary...months ago, I wanted to do tibs with Monegal. I was already weary about this from the sh*t that's been on  here, but after this...hell no! Dr. Rozbruch mentioned I might be able to get insurance coverage for tibias because of a varus deformity that I still have post femur LL. And according to Dr. Rozbruch (who I trust very much), it's about 3 months for tibias with Precice. Not terrible.

Cooper how much did you lengthen your tibias by? Are you on crutches right now? Sorry, just wasn't clear on some things from what you said.

Unfortunately I am in wheel chair. It shocks! I lengthen about 5cm in tibia and had a world of problem to deal with. if you can get insurance and go with Rozbruch that will be awesome! I am sure you will be on feet 3/4 months.

I forgot to tell you. If anyone disappear from the forum and does not update the diary than chances are patient is going through complication and possibly in despair and depressed.

Cooper,

It look you have  successful operation with paley before .i read you diary. If this so, why you did not choose paley for tibia lengthening?
