That's an optimistic mindset. No, it certainly doesn't mean that most cases have a great outcome - simply put, there isn't enough peer reviewed study to be able to definitively state one way or another or to even classify a 'great' outcome.
Man it Wont post the pic . I copy this from the mail -

I think I can see the confusion that has occurred in this thread.
Cosmetic limb lengthening surgeries or surgeries in general? I imagine is referring to the latter, I believe 30 would be a reasonable amount. Bear in mind, Dr Rozbruch will perform countless different surgeries in relation to his work for countless different deformities/issues. Cosmetic limb lengthening will be a very small element of his day to day work and surgery - as to why I hold him in very high esteem.
Maybe top doctors have a more successful percentage. But the majority goes to the third world, that's why we see a bad outcome

You may recover sooner or later, you may walk normally after 6-8 months "this what i call it a great recovery"- others may just walk normally after 2-3 years. Both recovered but 2-3 years i will not call it a recovery. I try my best to afford for the best doctor, otherwise am not going to do this risky surgery.
If you are that concerned about recovery or potential complications Kaiser then I'd advise you just to forget about this surgery
It's important as well that people do not take advice off individuals who have never even done the operation.
I'm 6-7 months post op I have my frames of and I'm walking well enough, I only did 3cms though, I have aches and pains around where the pin sites were it will take a while for those to calm down.
No one on these boards barring people who have done this should be handing out advice! No one!
