Proportions after +10cm to femur?
« on: November 23, 2023, 11:09:26 PM »
Hello, everyone. After contacting multiple surgeons, I believe my best bet is Dr. Giotikas. He is currently utilizing the G-Nail method which can lengthen up to 10 cm in the femur. It was a small detail that I had overlooked earlier, but I am now trying to see whether that amount of lengthening would appear disproportionate when compared to the shorter tibia? Would that also put a lot of upper body weight upon the tibias? I'm not an expert in this field so I apologize if this is a seemingly stupid question. Thank you.

Thanks for the suggestion. I checked him out, and it doesn't look too bad to me. I can see why it could look odd, only because he shows off the length of his leg a lot in his videos. But I think that if he didn't do that, nobody would really notice anything.
