Hey guys put up a previous post a few weeks ago about the surgery, but anyway here's another, my height is 171cms and my wingspan is only 163cms. As I mentioned a few weeks ago I will most likely go for cross lengthening in Russia with Dr/Kulash/Solimin, I will aim to lengthening a total of 4 inches, which will bring my height up to around 5'11 (180-181cm's), my question is based around my wingspan as it's really short, I heard an ape index of around -4 still looks okay, currently mine is around -3, so was just wondering would lengthening my arms by around 3 inches (8cms) be okay, and also how quickly after leg lengthening could I carry out that surgery?.

Only seeing this response now, and considering going down the external route with two operations on the tibia and femur, both 5cm's.

And no, no one has ever said anything about my arm length, they look fairly normal, kind of shocked me when I found out that was my wingspan, and thanks for the info by the way.

Merry Chirstmas to you also, and yeah I will send some in soon, and yeah measuring arm to shoulder is about 27.5 inches, and in regards to my height I start the day not far off 5'8, most of the day marginally above 5'7, and end the day at roughly 5'6.90cms's.

And it makes alot of sense my arms are 27.5 inches because funny enough my legs are the exact same length, as I said before I will send the photo's in, but basically I'm all torso.
