.There are many advantages of Limb lengthening surgery. The first is the low infection chances, haemorrhage or tissue trauma as compared to the traditional techniques as it requires no incision. In this surgery there are lesser chances of joint stiffness and contractures than the traditional methods. You need to be hospitalised for only a short period of time (4 days). This surgery ensures three dimensional corrections of deformities owing to the shape of the apparatus which is cylindrical. Post the surgical procedure you will leave the hospital with clear guidelines from the orthopaedic team to turn on the distraction rod on the external fixator 1/4 mm for 4 times every day (which comes to one millimetre everyday). This is to be done for about 6–8 weeks after surgery. When it is confirmed, through X rays, that the bone has healed completely, fixations are removed and the patient can now walk with crutches.
If you are planning to get Limb Lengthening in India, there are two options: Ilizarov surgery or limb lengthening surgery with external nail fixator Ilizarov surgery which will require you to stay in the hospital for 4 days and stay in India for 45 days post surgery. You will have to come back after 7 months to remove Ilizarov Fixator. Ilizarov surgery or limb lengthening surgery with internal nail fixator Ilizarov surgery with internal nail fixation which will require you to stay in the hospital for 4 days and stay in India for 45 days post surgery. In this kind of surgery you do not need to come back to India again as the internal nail fixator is a permanent feature in your legs. Only if you have pain do you need to remove the fixator.

Unlike other procedures, limb lengthening utilizes the capacity of the body itself to regenerate not only new bone, but also the nerves, tissues and muscles to provide complete support to the newly forming bone.
Limb lengthening surgery is often achieved with the use of internal limb lengthening device. The procedure is performed after providing general anaesthesia, which means the candidate will not feel any pain during the operation. The surgery is achieved by making two holes:
The first one is for insertion of the internal lengthening device
The second one is for cutting the bone, in order to make an additional space for bone regeneration in the gap.
The functioning of the device is checked and monitored before the punctures are sealed. The device can be monitored with the help or a remote which should be used three times per day for a prescribed period of time. The implant or the internal limb lengthening device is usually removed after a period of one or two years, as needed in case of the candidate.
The recovering time from the procedure is achieved after a period of six to nine months. The recovery period depends a lot on the growth rate of the candidate. Besides, it also depends on the follow-up care taken after the surgery, as well as on nutrition intake of the candidate.
