Limb Lengthening and Deformity Correction Surgery utilizes the body’s natural ability to regenerate new bone tissue (distraction osteogenesis). It safely treats severe stature discrepancies caused by birth defects, post-traumatic growth-plate issues, or non-unions, and is highly sought after for cosmetic height enhancement. Modern medical hubs offer state-of-the-art options: External Ilizarov Fixators or internal Magnetic Motorized Intramedullary Nails (such as PRECICE rods). Internal magnetic rods achieve precise bone adjustments via an external remote control, eliminating external pins and maximizing patient comfort.

Details van de procedure

1 Osteotomy: Under general anesthesia, a precise, minimally invasive cut (osteotomy) is made to divide the target bone into two distinct sections.

Device Implantation:

2 Internal Method: A motorized intramedullary rod is placed down the center of the bone marrow and locked with screws.

External Method: Multi-planar circular ring fixators (Ilizarov or Taylor Spatial Frame) are anchored onto the leg via trans-fixing pins.

3 Latency Phase: The site is left undisturbed for 7-10 days to allow early soft bone tissue (callus) to begin forming.

4 Distraction Phase: The device is lengthened precisely by 1 mm per day (divided into 4 daily adjustments). The body constantly grows new bone inside this expanding gap.

5 Consolidation: Once the target length is met, adjustments cease, and the new bone completely calcifies over several months.
