PRECICE 2 Method
The PRECICE 2 method involves using a magnetic-controlled internal device that allows precise bone lengthening. The device is implanted inside the bone, and its lengthening is controlled externally using a magnet. This technique offers a more comfortable and minimally invasive approach, typically achieving bone lengthening over a period of 3 to 6 months.
Key Highlights:
- Procedure: After completing the lengthening, the internal device is removed in a follow-up surgery before the patient returns home.
- Infection Prevention: The device is designed to minimize the risk of infection due to its internal placement and the use of high-quality materials.
- Comfort and Recovery: The precision of the technique allows for a more comfortable recovery with minimal discomfort and shorter recovery time.
- Efficiency: PRECICE 2 offers an efficient and safe way to lengthen bones with a focus on patient safety and a smoother post-operative experience.

FAQ
How long will I need to stay in Turkey for my limb-lengthening treatment?
The duration of your stay will depend on the lengthening goal. Since patients can gain 1cm in every 10 days, generally it’s between 2-4 months.
What is the difference between LON, PRECICE 2, and Quadrilateral Combination methods?
LON is the most basic technique in which the lengthening is assured by the external fixator. Precice 2 is more advanced and practical due to internal fixators. Quadrilateral surgery combination means lengthening both femurs and tibias during the same process. Patients require 2 different CLL surgeries approximately 3-5 weeks apart from each other. The combination can be made with both of the techniques, after the assessment by your surgeon.
