At Taller.Me Clinic, we are dedicated to offering the most advanced and patient-friendly leg lengthening solutions available. One of the cutting-edge techniques we utilize is the PRECICE 2 Method. This minimally invasive approach combines precision engineering with advanced technology to provide a safe, effective, and comfortable experience for patients seeking leg lengthening.

What is the PRECICE 2 Method?

The PRECICE 2 Method is an innovative, motorized intramedullary nail system designed for leg lengthening. This system allows for precise and controlled bone lengthening through a minimally invasive procedure. Unlike traditional external fixators, the PRECICE 2 system operates entirely within the body, offering a more discreet and less cumbersome experience for the patient.

How Does It Work?

  1. Surgical Insertion: During the initial surgery, the PRECICE 2 nail is inserted into the medullary canal (the hollow center) of the bone. This nail is equipped with an internal motor and a telescopic mechanism that enables gradual bone lengthening.
  2. Magnetic Control: The lengthening process is controlled externally using a remote device that communicates with the internal nail via a magnetic field. This external controller allows precise adjustments to the nail, gradually lengthening the bone at a rate of about 1 millimeter per day.
  3. Daily Adjustments: Patients typically use the external remote controller daily to make incremental adjustments to the nail, ensuring steady and controlled bone growth. This process continues until the desired length is achieved.
  4. Healing and Consolidation: After reaching the target length, the lengthening process stops, and the bone begins to heal and consolidate. The PRECICE 2 nail remains in place to provide stability during this healing phase.
  5. Final Removal (Optional): Once the bone has fully healed, the PRECICE 2 nail can be removed through a minor surgical procedure, although it can also be left in place if preferred.

Benefits of the PRECICE 2 Method

  • Minimally Invasive: The procedure involves small incisions and no external devices, resulting in less scarring and discomfort.
  • Precision Control: The magnetic remote controller allows for precise adjustments, ensuring accurate and symmetrical bone lengthening.
  • Patient Comfort: The absence of external fixators makes the recovery process more comfortable and less intrusive, allowing for easier mobility during lengthening.
  • Reduced Complications: The internal nature of the system minimizes the risk of infections and other complications associated with external devices.
  • Faster Recovery: Patients typically experience a faster and smoother recovery, with the ability to bear weight on the leg sooner compared to traditional methods.
