Is it worth waiting for the Stryde nail to come back, or should one just use the precice 2 method?

Giotikas just said that Precice will be available in March, and Stryde unknown: at least not before August. Seriously considering Stryde now...

Where did you hear at least not before August?

Now I need to consider Precise vs Betzbone.

The August date refers to all surgeries booked before then being cancelled. Stryde coming back could be earlier or later than that but that’s the estimated date they’ve been given by Nuvasive.

back to ilizarov days it is boys. aint nothing like wearing those frames on your legs and not shoving a nail through your bone marrow. And when your done, just remove the frames and walk it off! no nail removal.

there are many weight bearing external frames. They would be favorable to precice wouldnt they?

but unfortunately every single soul you meet will know your doing cosmetic leg length surgery. You can try to explain that its for bow leg correction and surely they will believe you.

And I dont know much about the twist and shout nails.

Can you use the ilizarov on the femurs? I thought it was only for tibias. If so how long does it take to gain 3cm?

Anyone hear any updates about Stryde's availability? Last I was told by my doctor is that it wouldn't be available until a year from now.

I thought the last info by Nuvasive was Q3 2021 for stryde?! When did you talk to your doctor?
