Significant progress as the proximal fragment reaches the docking point. A minor deformity correction is planned, with continued distraction at a reduced rate to minimise stress on the ankle.
As the most crucial phase of treatment progresses, expected complications arise, including a broken screw and Achilles tendon tightening. Adjustments to distraction speed and physiotherapy aim to maintain progress and ensure optimal healing.
Fracture compression and tibial lengthening progress as planned, with good bone regenerate formation. The next follow-up will assess docking progress and alignment.
