Just had surgery and I have a question (Taylor Space Frame)
« on: November 01, 2021, 08:29:09 PM »
Hey guys and gals, I just had limb correction surgery because my tibia was externally rotated and my surgeon agreed to give me an extra 3CM. I’m using the Taylor Space Frame. I asked her how long would it take for the bone to heal and to pull the rods post lengthening and she said 3CM would take 3-4 months. Just want to confirm if this is true? I’m a 29 year old Adult Male.

Edit: I’m lengthening at a rate of 0.5mm a day


Thank you

It will need about 4 months, your doctor is right.
