How many cm do you lose?
« on: January 13, 2025, 11:12:14 PM »
For all those who did it, say you lengthen 8 cm on femurs? Do you gain exactly 8 cm or lower, and by how much? Is it the same on tibias as well?

The nail actually maxes out at 8.2/8.3cm and the loss is around .2-.3 cm im pretty sure, so if you max out the nail, you'll get 8

You lose a very, very small amount due to the femoral angle. The femurs aren't perfectly vertical. The amount lose due to this angle is quite small though. A rounding error.
