HEIGHT EXTENSION / BONE EXTENSION SURGERY
Nowadays, with the help of technology, short stature (dwarfism) can be eliminated by lengthening the leg bones and, if necessary, the arm bones. It can be treated. The same technology is also successfully applied in the treatment of bone shortness and curvature caused by fracture or infection.
Rings made of carbon or special alloy are attached to the bone to be corrected or lengthened from the outside with the help of wires, and the bone is gradually straightened and/or lengthened.
This device can remain worn on the arm or leg for months and requires maintenance. This process is more comfortable for the patient than expected because patients can step on their feet and walk with the help of crutches while the device is attached.
With this method, with which we have achieved very successful results, many injuries that had no treatment in the past can be corrected.
