Any Dr. Kohne (Germany) patient here?
« on: August 26, 2020, 10:07:52 PM »
Is there any patient from Dr. Kohne in Germany, Munich?
I'm choosing between Mahboubian and Betz for tibia surgery, but Dr. Kohne seems an interesting third option.
I'd love to hear some experiences from his patients.

Hi, would you consider Dr Giotikas and his suprapatellar approach for your tibias? There seems to be some good data on Google that it's better for the chronic knee pain.

He seems interesting but I'm only considering US or German doctors.

I'm still not sure I'll do it. I had consultations with Dr. Mahboubian and Betz so far about it.
If I do it, it will be a very conservative second LL, just 4cm or so, get my tibia/femur ratio back to a normal distribution range and to correct a leg discrepancy I have.

Peter Thaller is another option in Germany. He uses the modern Precice and Stryde nails.
