Can you safely gain height of 11.5 – 14 cm?
Yes, with experience over many years and many patients that I’ve seen, managing many complications, I’ve come to the conclusion that the safe amount for a femur is around 6.5 cm for most patients, and for a tibia it is around 4.5 to 5 cm for most patients. However, in many cases are able to increase the femur by 8 cm and 6 cm in the tibia which include lengthening over a nail techniques.
The amount of length we can gain in the tibia and femur depends on three factors.
1. Patient’s flexibility and body’s response to lengthening
2. Surgeons expertise and success of the operation
3. Rehabilitation process
There are not many doctors worldwide who can perform limb lengthening surgery safely due to potential complications. To achieve the best results, it is crucial to combine the patient’s commitment to physical therapy with the doctor’s expertise in limb lengthening techniques and the use of an appropriate treatment system.
