Maybe, you have discrepancy because of lon method.  You know when doctor inserts nail after removing frames,you. may lose some height that you earned during lengthening period. Anyway, it is totally muharrem inan's irresponsibility

Really sorry to hear about your results, jexus. It's even worse that the clinic is being unresponsive in a time of need.

I know it's frustrating, but I hope that you come back to update us on your situation. We all hope to hear good news in the near future, best of luck.

That is very disappointing,1.1 cms of discrepancy are unacceptable for a technique (LL) that is supposed to correct limb's discrepancies
Your doctor and his assistants lack both professionality and skills
I hope you will solve soon this issue,keep us tunned and don't leave the forum

Jexus I've told you before many things like not walk with monorails and avoid atl at all costs and also that 0.5-6 cm discrepancy (which proved bigger) proves that a doctor is irresponsible but you keep supporting your doctor.
Unfortunately I proved right as any doctor who insists on walking with monorails (which are the worst way to lengthen) and doing atl can't be a good doctor.

But don't be disappointed, bones can still be fixed and you can use a monorail to only your shorter foot to lengthen again.
If you still have monorails on your legs force the doctor to rebreak your shorter foot and lengthen it again. It can be done and it is the only solution. Up to 0.5-6cm a discrepancy is controllable but 1+cm is too much to leave it, especially after a cosmetic surgery!

So make the doctor lengthen your bone or sue him. Irrensonsibility should be punished amd doctors should stop play with our lifes. We want to become better after LL, not cripples due to doctors faults.
I am very strict with LL doctors because they've done much mistakes to many of us and that should be stopped!

Keep strong!

You are completely right. I thought that the X rays were mistaken but they definitely not. I have the intramedullary nail but don’t have the fixator. I don’t know if it is possible to lenghten it 1cm without the fixator with a surgery. I think this risks the union of the bone.

Btw Bodybuilder have you seen this threat on the old forum about the silicone implants. Maybe they can help.

No it won't. They change the way your foot touch the ground and your gait will be altered as you'll always feel that you have something under your feet.
The only easy solution is to wear 1cm insole un your shorter leg and you'll be ok. But personally I wouldn't leave my feet with that discrepancy after LL which is a cosmetic surgery.
1cm is maybe toouch for a direct lengthening but 0.5-6cm can be done without risk of non union so imo when you are completely healed go to a doctor to make you a new cut and lengthen 0.5-6 cm (with nail still inside) to have just minor (and without consequences) discrepancy without having again fixators and all these.
I think it is the best solution for you.
Till then just wear an insole and don't let down.
I've been through a lot with my ex doctor screwing my tendons with atl and having a right tibia malunion and I did a corrective surgery and I am almost fine now, so everything can be fixed as long as our nerves are intact.

Stay strong!

Thanks man,

I think the same 1 cm may be too much but 0,5-0,7 can be done with a surgery without the fixator I guess. Maybe it’s better to do it right now because the bone is not fully consolidated.
