First imagine frames on your tibias for several months. Getting around the apartment, getting in the car to get x-rays, doing physical therapy, going to the bathroom.
Now imagine frames on your femurs. Even without doing it, you can imagine it being a worse experience, because it's hard to even sit. Harder to walk, since you can't spread your thighs as much as you can your lower legs.
This is why if you're doing one pair of segments with external frames, you're better off doing tibias. If you're doing internals like PRECICE, femurs are preferred since you can lengthen more with less complications.
Since you're only lengthening 4 cm and cost is important to you, external tibias is recommended. If you want to speed up the process, do it with LATN or LON.
thank you very much for information, I dont have the time to search in the forum for ages the exact info i was looking and you put it all here together. Withouth this, I could have done the wrong choice. I really need to speed up the process and I am quite sure i will do the operation abroad. I have doubts where exactely to do it, who could be a doctor who has a history of good tibias with LATN/LON and is quite cheap? i have read some names frequently, like Solomin (i am in contact with his collegue Kulesh now), Mitkovic and Barinov. Who could be the best in my case? I would have gone for Russia but I am scared because i need Visa, i have heard they dont speak english, i dont know how the hospital is... anyway I would have right now the money they want for hospital, its very cheap.
