that's crazy and inspiring at the same timeĀ  What's the maximum lengthening done on tibias that you know of ?

did she require ATL release ? if yes , did it affect her push off strength permanently ?
how long was the lengthening phase ?
did she do femurs as well ?
if yes , were they before or after she did tibias ?

Quote from: Body Builder on May 04, 2023, 11:06:14 PMI really can't understand why someone who wants only one LL for about 5-6 cm total lengthening does anything else than pure external tibias which is the safest, cheapest and less painful way of LL.


1.increased chances of infection
2.pain if you accidently bump the fixator cage against something
3.having to wear the fixator for 12-18 months
4.scarring
