I live in Italy. Would you recommend this doctor then?
Yes I would, the surgery it's a little bit expensive but I'm happy with my choice up to now..
What do you guys think about my proportions? I think I could go with 2 cm more, going to about 7...

Does dr catagni perform Latn?
And what about your opinionĀ for time frame if i did 5cm external or latn with this doctor?
I think your proportions look fine. Just be aware if you do more cm you'll have very long tibia for a man your height. How long were your tibia and femur before surgery?

He STRONGLY prefer Ilizarov, this means that he will push you on doing Ilizarov... But he also lenghen tibiae with ISKD and an hybrid method, in which you have an internal rod and an esternal axial lengthening frame, that is removed after the lengthening, so during the consilodation there is just the internal rod (don't know the name of this technique). Btw, if you ask him via email, he will send you a pdf document with all the information you need.

do you know your tibia and femur length before surgery?
I have no idea, I didn't measure them..

It is very easy.
Now you just measure current tibias length by x ray then minus number that you have lengthened.
36ish cm pre-op
