Average lengthening was 13.5 cm. The two levels were lengthened by an average of 7.5 cm proximally and 6.0 cm distally. Concomitant deformities were also addressed during lengthening. External fixation treatment time averaged 8.8 months. Healing index averaged 0.7 months/cm.CONCLUSION: Bilateral tibial lengthening for dwarfism is difficult, but the results are usually quite gratifying.",
