Title: Cheapest precice surgery
Post by: Philosopher on June 29, 2023, 01:02:29 PM

Hello, I ideally want to lenghten up to 15 cm by two surgeries, but money is a somewhat problem for me, so I was wondering do you know any reliable places/doctors specialising in precice methodology but with relatively low cost?

Someone suggested me Dr. Giotikas, but I am willing to explore my options more.

I though Mangal Parihar was good. Didn’t he do part of his training with Paley?

Yes. He's one of the most experienced Ilizarov specialist doctors alive. Unfortunately, Precice is no longer available in India, however. External fixation with a ring fixator or LON on tibias up to a max of 6cm are the only options with him now, as he won't lengthen femur if internal nails aren't available.
