Is precious ACL reconstruction a disqualifying factor for LL surgery?
« on: December 28, 2021, 01:31:39 AM »
I’m planning on getting a total of 5.5-6 inches of leg lengthening surgery starting with my tibias next year. However, I also have an ACL reconstruction scheduled for February of next year. I planned on waiting until I’m fully recovered from surgery (approx. 6 months) to go under the knife for LL, but someone brought up the idea of ACL reconstruction being a disqualifying factor for LL. I’ve never heard of this before, but if anyone knows about this, please let me know what the score is. Thank you.

Hi!

I asked Dr Robbins and he said it completely fine to undergo limb lenghtening after ACL surgery.

I've had ACL surgery in 2013.
