My daughter is 9 - this surgery was recommended for her as well. I have had a hard time finding information about it. I would be interested in hearing someone's experience. What was gained and what was lost with the surgery. I have asked a lot of questions but still want more answers. Who is the doc...

How old is your daughter and where did you get the surgery done? Are you hoping to gain external rotation? What kind of a splint is it? Thanks for posting!

My 9 year old daughter was recommended for an osteotomy. I was wondering if anyone could share their experience. What was gained/lost from the surgery and what was the recovery like? I have searched through the posts and there does not seem to be much recent information. Thanks.

The osteotomy was recommended for my daughter and I have had a hard time finding much information on it. I would love to hear what someone else's experience was. I hope that you will post. thanks

I too would appreciate any information on the osteotomy to gain external rotation. This is something that has been recommended for my 9 year old daughter and I would appreciate hearing about anyones experience with it. Thanks

I wanted to let you know that you can also see Dr. James at Sacramento Shriners if you want another opinion.

I too saw Dr. Hentz and am considering botox. He said that it was okay to wait until the fall - I did not want to miss swim season either. So it is worth inquiring. Also I am interested in finding out how much success anyone has had with this. Thanks!

I am interested in a picture of this splint as well. Thanks!
