Stryde nail coming back by the end of the year?
« on: September 21, 2021, 12:46:57 PM »

Received an email from Dr Ian Bacarese-Hamilton (London, UK) saying:

The Stryde Nail is not available at the moment, however we believe they will become available towards the end of the year. We are therefore still seeing patients for leg lengthening, and most likely will be performing surgeries early in the new year should all be well.

Is this reasonable?

Unlikely it will be back in the next 3 months given all the reported cases of Osteolysis. They need to fix the problem first and then go through FDA approval process again which itself can take ages.

I can assure you that it will not come back by the end of the year.

Did you ask them about Precice also? Is it available in the UK now?
