What is Tibial Lengthening Using A Reamed Type I about?

This study evaluates the efficacy of tibial lengthening using a reamed intramedullary nail combined with an Ilizarov external fixator for treating leg length discrepancies and short stature. The results showed an average limb lengthening of 4.19 cm with a mean external fixation duration of 12.58 days per cm gained, and all distracted segments healed without complications. This technique was found to be reliable and effective, reducing external fixation time and complications compared to traditional methods.
