I knew i had the Van Ness procedure done when i was about two years of age. Although i never knew what my condition was called all i knew was i did not have my left thigh . Still don't know exactly what type i have though(my femur is about an inch or two long now and i am 6ft 3 with just under 45 degree range of motion in my knee/hip).
i am glad i had the rotationplasty because it has improved my quality of life i have learned to ride a bike skateboard and have more recently taken up thai boxing and jujitsu.
Athough the pffd has effected my social life eventually leading to, and still suffering from social phobia and depression.
