Need some LL vet help
« on: December 10, 2016, 04:05:05 PM »
I was wondering if anyone had x-rays of their legs before external device removal. I'm nearing the end of this process and I want to see how the bone formation looks right about the time it is ready for full weight bearing and device removal.

Thanks guys

Here is KiloKahn's X-Ray before frames were removed.

Latest X-Rays (6-17-2015)
Report says "External fixation hardware along the bilateral lower legs is stable in appearance. The osseous structures are stable in alignment." Just sent Dr Parihar the x-rays and notified him of my frame removal surgery on the 29th. Asked him for advice on how I should handle walking for the first few weeks after frame removal.

Is it like yours? Is your bone formation similar?

Im getting there. My right leg is consolidating in a funny way, it's solid white heading towards the back and barely anything in the front of the leg. Might have to loosen some screws to allow more weight bearing and I'll be talking to the doctor about this when I see him next
