Hey everyone, I hope you’re doing well. I just wanted to drop by to let you know about a highly requested live stream that’s finally going to be happening. This Saturday 10-22 at 10am EDT we’ll be hosting Dr. Paley as he does a thorough overview on limb lengthening complications.

On the agenda will be the following…

-Overview of complications (fat & pulmonary emboli, contractures, delayed/non-union, premature consolidation, nerve compression, malalignment, IT
band release, bone marrow after reaming, etc. including what they are, how likely and treatment modalities)

-Submitted patient cases with x-rays for review

-New STRYDE info? He’s actually on the development board after all - I’ll try on this one lol.

-LIVE Q&A - might be brief as he is leaving town the same day so it depends. But bring your best questions in case we have time.

Anyways here's the link if you want to check it out

You're a gift to the community cyborg

Unfortunately I've been tired during femur LL and I misread the title as "LL Complications stream from Dr. Paley"

So I think a concern of late is Dr. Assayag might have mentioned that non union was happening at higher than expected rates for the old styrde nail compared to precise and I wondered if Dr. Paley had any thoughts on that or some possible explanations

The youtube video where Dr. Paley said the stretching before surgery only lasts 24 hours, could you please ask him to elaborate on that? How does it work? Ex: does he see that all the pre-surgery stretching range of motion gains are lost after 24 hours and they go back to how it was before they started stretching? Or something else?

Thank you

Theres all sorts of complications that individually may be rare. But curious what the overall odds of getting some kind of complication are when you add them all up. Do the vast majority make it through without an issue?

Which complications are most closely associated with accidental, non-obvious (to the patient) mistakes made by patients?

So excluding things like "knew he did not stretch enough/lengthened too much against doctor's advice, got ballerina foot" -> something like this would be too obvious, I mean things that are more subtle

Probably the best interview on your channel! Thank you so much, Victor!

Who were the doctors he trashed?
- Dr. D. from Las Vegas
- Dr. G. from Athens
- Dr. S. from Dehli?

Who else?

To answer your question, i'd need to watch the 3h interview again! Basically he trashed almost every doctor execpt himself;)

It was a brilliant interview since he mentioned some details which are very important to consider during the surgery. He made it clear: LL is not like just drilling a hole into ur bone and inserting a metal stick.

Due to this interview, I really consider him as my future LL surgeon although i'd have plenty of choices here in Europe. Extraordinary doctor!

What were his specific criticisms of Dr. G (ex: time stamp, topics)? Gonna meet with Dr. Giotikas this week, not sure if I should ask about anything

Also thank you so much cyborg for doing this interview, the knowledge per minute (KPM) was high as the Invest Answers youtube channel guy would probably say

He didn’t say anything specific about Dr. G. He only said that people go to Greece, India, Egypt… etc. And come back to him with complications.

The only docs that he trashed are the one from New Delhi and Dr. D. He also said that besides him their are only a handful of surgeons that are as qualified as him. However, he didn't mention their names.
