What do you mean by checking overall leg length? Rozbruch & his team just measure how much the nail distracted, you don't need more. Unless I misunderstood you...
doesn't it have to be checked for
- overall length of the leg on Xray
- distracted length of internal nail inside the leg on Xray
- lengthened values on the ERC
?
my doctor checks only the last two (distracted length of internal nail inside the leg on Xray,
lengthened values on the ERC)
Doesn't he tell you how much each leg has distracted after every X-ray session?
In any case, if there is a leg discrepancy, you should be able to see it with your eyes. I had a minor leg discrepancy myself (of about 8 mm) and it was noticeable even without X-ray.
he looks at ERC value and if one more, the distracted length of internal nail in xray, not the overall length of the leg being lengthened. That concerns me.
i also see slight diff with bare eyes. not sure if that's from other parts of the legs(those not lengthened).
When is your next x-ray scheduled? I'm surprised you're only getting x-rays every what 4+ weeks during lengthening?
Did it seem fine last month but now a month later off 8mm? Or seems stable at 8mm since last month's x-rays? Perhaps post the x-rays. If the nail is still working you should be able to even them out. Hope everything works out.
did you do at hss? or did yu see someone who did there? how was your or their experiences? never heard anything like mine? thanks for your words btw
