firstly, the length of the patient can be calculated, but it is useful to make a diagnosis. we start lengthening surgery between the ages of 4-5. First, both legs tibia and then extend the femur. then extend the arms to both humerus. however, in order to reach 145-150 cm, we generally need to apply a second extension to the legs surgically. Here the diagnosis is important. Let's see the patient if you want to make a program according to him. you can bring the patient to the ilizarov polyclinic of the orthopedics and traumatology department of the istanbul medical school on wednesdays or our secretary number: 0538 894 00 91. get back again Assoc. Prof. Dr. Halil Balcı
