Bone-fragmented height-increasing surgery carries high risks

Experts point out that most of the height-increasing surgeries on the market are bone-fractured and height-increasing surgeries. Heightening of broken bones means breaking the bones into pieces and growing them again. However, the consequence of this is that not only does the heightening have no effect, but it actually causes disability. After scientific calculations, the range of height increase through surgery is within 3 to 5 cm. If it exceeds 5 cm, it is difficult to achieve in actual operation. Some advertisements claim that you can grow more than ten centimeters taller, which is obviously irresponsible.

Bone-lengthening surgery is very harmful - the principle of bone-raising surgery is to saw off the bones first, and then artificially lengthen them, and the nerves, blood vessels, muscles, and skin of the legs must be of elongation. The potential risks of this kind of surgery are actually very high.

(1) Injury 1 - If the limb lengthening speed is too fast, it may cause damage to the nerves and blood vessels of the legs, leading to nerve paralysis and blood supply disorders in the legs, resulting in necrosis of the lower limbs, leading to the need for amputation or paralysis.

(2) Injury 2 - 3% to 5% of ordinary people are patients with bone nonunion and aplastic anemia. Once the physical examination before surgery is neglected, the consequences will be disastrous.

(3) Injury 3 - Due to the increased pressure on the knee joint during surgery, without scientific knee joint exercises, it will cause knee joint stiffness and even disability.

(4) Injury 4 - Since the steel needles of the external fixation "increasing device" have to penetrate the patient's legs respectively, a little carelessness may damage the blood vessels, muscles and nerves of the legs. Tissue; if the steel needle is not properly sterilized, it may cause perforation infection at any time, and even cause osteomyelitis, causing disability.

Experts warn: The risk of broken bones is high, and a slight mistake can lead to disability. According to experts, to increase the height of broken bones, it is necessary to use external force to "break" the good legs, and then use external force to stretch them to achieve the purpose of "growing taller". Among them, it is not only the bones that need to adapt to this external force, but also the legs. Nerves, blood vessels, muscle tissue, etc., cause great damage to the body's tissues.

Theoretically, the height can be increased by more than ten centimeters, but in actual operation, it will be difficult to extend the new bones too much; and even if the bones can adapt to this external force stretching, the nerves and blood vessels may not be able to adapt. , there is a possibility of being pulled off, and the muscle tissue may be strained, and the consequences of this may be necrosis or paralysis of the lower limbs.
