Looks good, but people will see there is something wrong with their legs.
I guess that it will go away after removing the rods (I hope)...
People on old forum always say: looks good or he's walking normal.
I have a different opinion on it, many of them doesn't even walk straight.

old forum ers are often naively hopeful or even deluded about the realities of LL.
Donghoon seems to be the only surgeon I've seen so far that is publishing video evidence of how patients are doing without sugar coating. At least if we are to believe the numbers accompanying the video (time since op, amount lengthened).

I think you need to look more carefully ;D

Those people are all walking funny, but keep in mind that their long-term walking will probably be much better. Those are all very recent post-op patients.

Great videos but will they ever walk fine again?

It's a shame that so many people are unaware that you can FULLY recover after LL if you choose a safe honest doctor and lengthen a reasonable amount. You know, the exact opposite of Apotheosis!

I can't say anything since I've never undergo a LL before.
Summer 2014... Then I'll do it.
I believe that as long the surgery itself went fine everything else will be fine as long you keep it safe.

What do you consider a reasonable amount to lengthen? What if someone lengthens 7 to 10 cms? Or did LL twice? Will they walk fine after full recovery?

Is this patient running with IM nails still inside his legs? I'm not sure if the 11 months post-op refers to his nail removal op or the fixator insertion/removal op.

Great videos.. it's good from dr lee to publish these videos...

Ok, now I call this is running. It is much better than Apotheosis's videos. Thats why there is a reason for 5 cm guys!

Going through all that pain and spending so much money is not worth it for just 5 cms to be honest, at least in my opinion

But is it worth the risk of life-long damage to your legs and athletic capabilities for just a few centimeters over 5 cm?

Is it worth almost the same risks for just 5cm though?
-
I guess it really just depends on your preferences and your cost-benefit analyses of the risks then.
For me, 5 cm > doing nothing > lengthening too much.

This is impressive. I don't understand why other doctors don't post videos such as these.

You'll never see videos like these from patients of Dr. Betz, and if you do you will see only a couple of videos from his select few patients that he wants to show you. You will never see the full picture because the full picture is a disaster. On the other hand Dr. Donghoon Lee has over 140 videos of patients and it goes up all the time. Check out his full youtube page by clicking the link below.

Good thing we have old forum PartyLeaks on this forum and now I know how to post links to youtube pages without it turning up as a blank video. I couldn't figure it out until I saw what you did for leechlet. Thanks man!
