I will do the surgery in a couple of weeks with external method.
I’m 163cm, my tibias are 32cm and my femurs are 42.
20% of 32 is slighty more than 7 which is what i wanted to get but i always read to not go over 6cm on tibias.
Do you thinks with those measurements can i get away with 7 or just be happy with 6cm?

No i measured myself, i will do my first x rays the day before the surgery.
Do you have any link of those studies? In any case i will do to say the least 6cm, in the end is one year of my life, 20k euro the pain etc and 6cm is the bare minimum i will do
