He performed limb lengthening surgery every day 1mm increased in tibia bone now for 3 months he increased overall 5cm. Now he is worried that callus is not there in his xray (attached which is taken after exactly after increasing 5cm) and they had given bone marrow transplant as well but not gave any result. Now what are the options does he have bone grafting and what is the success rate or in the cray callus is forming? Please suggest
(F,47) I fractured my left femur 10 months ago. doctors have done plate fixation with bone grafting because nail was not going inside my bone due to osteoporosis(as doctor said). Now after 10 months doctor said that it is non union. So I consult two more doctors. One doctor said they have to do remove the plate and re operate with nail or plate fixation and bone grafting and One doctor said that there is less chance of bone joining even after refixation. So they suggested Total Hip Replacement. I am very confused what should I do. Please see my xray and suggest me what is best. One xray is latest. One is when I fall. Thankyou
