The Guichet Nail authorises important gains in dwarfism and congenital short statures:
> 45-47 mm of gain in the first month authorising normal range of motion, with an average gain of 68 mm. Maximal gain possible of 16 cm through repeated surgeries using specific nails.
> Fully vertical weight bearing nail. Walking with no need for wheel-chair

Indications are:
> Post-trauma or other acquired shortening
> Congenital discrepancy of 6 to 30 cm (the nail can be as short as 12 cm)

Specific bone fragility conditions or deformities can be handled with the Guichet Nail, with weight bearing if your surgeon allows it given your unique personal medical condition.

Large gains can be obtained if beneficial for the patient. Proportions and other parameters will be discussed with the surgeon who will guide patients in their project.
The schedule of recovery of normal life and sports capacity will be discussed with the surgeon who will provide the recommendations to achieve the goal.
