It is,that's not the point,you're looking for the experience of the doctor and the method he use,as i said,Dr Buldu advise LON on femurs,which is bad,and other trustworthy doctors like Dr Giotikas in Greece don't even consider LON or externals on femurs,and the fact he let his patients lenghten beyond safety limits is concerning
If you still want to go with him,i'll advise you to ask as many questions to him before the surgery,and do it on tibias,or maybe wait to save more and internals,like precise or stryde on femurs for full 8cm

For example,one of his patient,David did 9.4cm LON femurs,that's insane,but he seems to have recover quite good,and he is back to get 7cm on tibias,he has your starting height 168cm and he's now at 177cm and he's looking to go to 185cm

There is a video of him somewhere showing that not even 1 year after the surgery he was able to run with ease,i must admit it's impressive,but i'm a bit afraid overall,you're going to break your legs,it's crucial to get the best doctor as you can get,i'm waiting to see more from Dr Buldu before considering him,but so far looks good indeed

He's currently doing tibias,so he is back in Istanbul,i would just be cautious,don't make one case the norm,9.4cm on femurs is considerable and not without risk of complications long term

Why where you told 81000 PLN, whereas on the page it's "just 64000 PLN" ? I'm not getting it.

+ 17K PLN (12K surgery + 5K nails) for the intramedullary nails to correct the axis and stabilize the bone shaft.

Oftentimes during the consolidation phase, osteolysis (dissolution of the bone) occurs around the pins, causing slow movement of the bone fragments.

"Bardzo często u pacjentów w okresie przebudowy dochodzi do osteolizy (rozpuszczania kości) wokół grotów co powoduje powolne przemieszczania się odłamów. W tym okresie poprawiamy oś i stabilizujemy trzon kości gwoździem śródszpikowym w celu kontynuacji okresu przebudowy z zachowaniem prawidłowej osi kończyny." - http://trigonorthopedia.pl/wydluzanie-konczyn-aparatem-zewnetrznym

This is not the LON method; I think it is Holyfix. Yes, I will have the LL surgery done by Dr. Halil Buldu.
