While reviewing reports regarding individuals who have undergone Limb Lengthening Treatments (LLT) and Weight Bearing Transplantations (WBT) in Turkey, I am of the opinion that the primary issue within their medical establishments lies not in the complications themselves, but rather in the challenge of early detection. They are likely to refrain from disclosing accurate statistics and persist in asserting that it is impossible for any physician to prevent all complications.
In cases where a patient’s infection goes unnoticed for an extended period, it could progress to severe osteomyelitis, a condition that would be unmistakable. It is probable that they may lack the capability to administer advanced treatments similar to those Hasaki underwent in the United States, thereby leaving the patient at risk of potential limb loss in the worst-case scenario.
For those seeking information on the success rate of Limb Lengthening (LL) surgery, the mentioned paper could serve as a valuable resource.
Nevertheless, only a minority of doctors engage in paper writing, and there are individuals who claim that papers are not always reliable.
