dear wanabetaler … i wanna know if its possible to have both tibia and femur surgery at the same time
Dear Perry James,
First of all, we would like to thank you for your kind comment and interest in limb lengthening and correctional surgery. Now, it must be stated that it is highly NOT recommended pursuing simultaneous limb lengthening for both the tibia and femurs at the same time.
There are several reasons for this, primarily, the human body can so much trauma and with both limbs simultaneously surgical broken; the risk of fat embolisms and non-unification increases. Due to these concerns, the doctors recommend at least 5 to 6 months wait period between the surgeries, so that once there is significant bone consolidation on the first pair of bone, then the second pair could be safely operated on.
Thank you for contacting us; for more information and questions contact us directly at support@wannbetaller.com or through Phone or Whatsapp: +90 533 193 65 00

Hello. I’m thinking of having limb lengthening surgery next year. I’d prefer to do it with LON method. But before doing the surgery I wanna ask you some questions. How soon can I walk normally without any restrictions? E.g. how long will it take me to be able to use public transports? Do you provide patients with a caretaker or should I take my family member or friend with me?
Hello,
Firstly I would like to thank you for your comment. Now to answer your first question, with the LON method the recovery times can be between 3 to 5 months. And, usually, a patient can start to walk during the distraction phase, after the initial surgical recovery; as the Internal embedded nail can support the weight of the patient. However, little by little as your distraction phase is finishing, you can start to walk more and more. Once the devices are removed after 4 to 5 months you can return to your normal life and use public transportation again. And to answer your second question, it is always recommended to have a family member or friend as support; however, we can also provide you with an English speaking caretaker for you as well.
For a more detailed and personalized consultation, please contact us via Phone or WhatsApp: +90 531 982 82 99 or email: support@wannabetaller.com
