Welcome to the campfire. Just like walking up to a campfire at a local crag or beach you never know what kind of conversation you'll intercept here. We may be talking about prosthetic feet or it may be the latest health-care bill pending before congress. You may find a thread about which camera is the best to take on your sea-kayaking trip or one asking how to get in touch with Erik Weihenmayer. You just don't know what you'll find here. Use the search function to look up prior threads or just browse. All we ask is that you be respectful and honor the sanctity of the campfire. Thx, Malcolm

Rotationplasty (Van Ness rotation)

Helo to everyone.

I am a new user of this site, a Polish citizen living in the UK (England).
After having a paragliding accident in 2005 I am about to lose my battle to safe my left leg and I am looking for hospitals in USA or Canada or any country in the world to performe the rotationplasty on my leg.
If I supposed to lose the leg I would simply prefer to chose the best (in my opinion) solution.
I am looking for people, who had had this done to get ready for the enevitable.
Regards.

Jacek

Hey -

I'm more than happy to give you whatever information I've got. My surgery was some time ago but I can talk to you about the functional realities and perhaps can suggest where to start looking for a surgeon. Email me at kate.sawford@gmail.com, it would probably be easiest to arrange a phone or skype conversation.

Sincerely,
Kate
