Dear all,
I am responsible for submitting a review of how the Ilizarov method is
currently used around the world, to be presented at ICEF&BR Congress
in Barcelona next October 20-22.
To do that end I'd appreciate if all colleagues who deal with methods
that employ distraction osteogenesis answer this short query, stating
which method they prefer now-a-days to deal with each of thementioned
situations.
In the presentation, which will subsequently be published on the
Internet, will be referred all colleagues and centers respondind to
the query.
Please send the query to
nuno....@netvisao.pt
Regards,
Nuno Craveiro Lopes
