ilizarov with nail ???
« on: September 09, 2022, 01:22:59 PM »

Hello, I talked to my doctor about surgery and he offered to do the lon method with ilizarov  ??? He said that the outer part will come out after 3 months, just like the lon method. Does anyone know about this method? What are the differences from the classic lon? More affordable in price  ::)

Right ;D there is only a frame difference. I'm wondering what the difference will be with the ilizarov ring method for 3 months instead of the External Fixator.

Ilizarov is the name of the ring-based external fixator.

The Ilizarov frame is more adjustable than the monorail fixator.  It will hold the bones in place better and can be used to straighten the bone if it gets bent.
