Hey guys

I wanted to know if my goal was 5cm, is it possible to lengthen the tibia and femur at the same time, and lengthen each bone by only 2.5cm...which would be 5cm overall.

Is this possible to do?

Main reason is I am short on time.

You can do it with Dr.Sarin or else so it is feasible but I don't recommend it at all.. Very dangerous.

Sounds like it's within the realm of possibility, yeah.

Have we already answered your question? It is possible but I personally don't recommend it.

You really think you will bear the phase with ring external fixators at the same time in both entire legs?
Anyway, doing tibias and femurs at the same time is generally medical malpractice from everything I've read so far, and dangerous. It may speak a lot about the surgeon, despite being famous or not.
Don't do LL while, or if, you're in a time rush. Safety first.
