Considerations about Tibia x Femur Lengthening

Edit Post

Hello, Everyone,

I'm not sure if I made myself clear with the topic title.

I had a 5 cm femur lengthening 2 years ago and I would like to do another 3~4cm in my tibias. It was with LON.
It took around 5 months, from lengthening to consolidation to end (very fast imo).

I will talk with the doctor next week about the surgery, what he recommends etc. But I would like to hear from people who had Femur and Tibia in different moments what they think about it.

I mean, for me the most difficult part of lengthening the femur was not being able to bend my knees. This caused me a lot of other troubles. If I could bend my knees I would be much more self-sufficient.

Is there any link in the forum regarding this? Any opinions and experiences to share?

Thank you all

in my hometown, brazil
it costed around in 2017, 20k dolars or even less (only surgeries and equipments, no accommodation because I Live in the city) with one of the best doctors (its a team but im assisted by one of the doctors) of the country. Rio de Janeiro.
it was LON.

I hope LON again with the same doctor and around same price.
