Hi, I want to know some informations about betzbone. Can it be used on femurs? How much cm can i get in the femur (max and minimum)? How much it cost? After 2 weeks from the operation can i came back at home and doing leghtening by myself? Can i also walk and do normal things (like work at the office) while leghtening?
Even if it costs more but i can go back home and work it would be more convenient than others method...
it can be used on femur or tibia.
you can go up to 12cm on femurs with it but that is REALLY NOT A GOOD IDEA. I really think you should try not to go past 8cm as that is what is generally accepted as the maximum safe limit. nobody is sure how well you will do after that. Minimum I guess .1cm? however much they lengthen when they put the nail in.
Im not sure if its 2 weeks I think its 3 weeks but you can go home fairly soon.
you can walk after a period of time im pretty sure its after you stop lengthening though. and you won't be walking normal for probably about 6 months after your surgery. You can do a desk job anytime you want but will you be able to withstand the pain and your recovery regiment enough to have the mental energy to work?
