All these videos are of femurs ....the operation was done with dr donghoon lee, none over 5cm i dunno if thats his personal rule .... tell me what you think
Looks good, but people will see there is something wrong with their legs.
I guess that it will go away after removing the rods (I hope)...
People on old forum always say: looks good or he's walking normal.
I have a different opinion on it, many of them doesn't even walk straight.

old forum ers are often naively hopeful or even deluded about the realities of LL.
Donghoon seems to be the only surgeon I've seen so far that is publishing video evidence of how patients are doing without sugar coating. At least if we are to believe the numbers accompanying the video (time since op, amount lengthened).

I think you need to look more carefully 
Those people are all walking funny, but keep in mind that their long-term walking will probably be much better. Those are all very recent post-op patients.
Great videos but will they ever walk fine again?

It's a shame that so many people are unaware that you can FULLY recover after LL if you choose a safe honest doctor and lengthen a reasonable amount. You know, the exact opposite of Apotheosis!
I can't say anything since I've never undergo a LL before.
Summer 2014... Then I'll do it.
I believe that as long the surgery itself went fine everything else will be fine as long you keep it safe.

What do you consider a reasonable amount to lengthen? What if someone lengthens 7 to 10 cms? Or did LL twice? Will they walk fine after full recovery?

Is this patient running with IM nails still inside his legs? I'm not sure if the 11 months post-op refers to his nail removal op or the fixator insertion/removal op.
