Word from multiple clinics is not until AT LEAST 2024 maybe even later than that. Looks like Betz and G nail are only options for full weight bearing for a LONG time. Designers of Stryde screwed up bad.

betz nail is pretty good as it is, no point in waiting for some indefinite date in the future for the "stryde return"

also precise on femurs isnt that bad, you get to weight bear pretty soon into consolidation as the majority of patients have small light skeletons and bodies

if youre here in 2022 and obsessing about LL "waiting for stryde return bro!" which can happen in 2025, best to change your mind

How about the synoste nitinail. Its should be weight bear nail. Any idea when it might be available?

This is very disappointing to hear.

Could you share with us which clinics have confirmed this late release?

Personally, I have E-Mail Paley and Nuvasive and didn't get a response in either case.

Do we even know if Nuvasive is working on re-releasing Stryde or any other weight-bearing nail for that matter?

my guess is 2025/26. stryde itself is not coming, because they are designing a new nail with new tech and new materials. If you take into account the rigorous fda / european fda's regulations, it will probably take another 2-3 years from now. My surgeon also agreed with this.

noone has heard anything about that since like 2018, probably attracted some investment funds, bought lamborghinis and shelved the project

paley literally said not to wait for stryde and to get precice or other methods currently available but you guys still obsess about stryde

ive written nuvasive and they responded to me “no comment on stryde release date”

the stryde is just the already tried and tested precice with a different alloy

i dont see why guys obsess about stryde - muh weight bearing. you realize you wont be jumping around like a spring chicken dancing the flamenco during lengthening with stryde right? youre still supposed to be VERY CAREFUL and use walker/crutches for everything as a precaution against you injuring yourself, bending the nail, breaking a screw etc which is a self-induced complication thatll cost you dearly to repair

betz bone is currently the good weight bearing nail with which you use crutches during the entire process

precice 2.2 has weight bearing limits which means you’re supposed to take some of the load off with a walker or crutches, but it doesn’t necessarily mean youll be wheelchair mode for 6 months

in the end, have to be realistic, get taller NOW or obsess about your height for an indefinite amount of years until they figure out an alloy replacement for the stryde

Trial finishes December 2022. Depends on how the trial went as to when it might be available. That is all I could get from Google if you find out anything share it. My guess is it is going to be a long time for them as well.

Gentlemen,

The current weight bearing nails on the European markets have the same osteolysis problems Stryde had. Their inventors are just not ethical and honest enough to admit it.

As of now Precice is the best implant on the international market hands down.

well this osteolysis news is highly concerning for Betz patients, let alone guichet nail patients.

Why is there osteolysis in your opinion if the mechanical nails don't have any fancy alloys and metals in them but straight up stainless steel? Is it stainless steel or titanium?

Precice nails as far as I know have special alloys and rare earth minerals to make the magnetic distraction possible

it’s the stainless . And the constant motion at the telescopic junction which creates crevice corrosion in the long run .

It’s all mediated by the weight bearing

titanium does not create the same type of crevice corrosion it seems
