why not also consider Parihar for Internals? And yes, go for internal femurs first since they allow you to gain a greater height of 1-2 cm than tibia lengthening and are less invasive plus recovery is better. Both Parihar and Birkholtz are great choices for femur lengthening.

Current height - 168.5 cm: 5'6.5
Goal - 180 cm: 5'11
*2 segments (femurs-6.5 cm) + (tibia-5 cm)=11.5 cm: 4.5''

They both are talked about positively here. However, I don't know of any patients that have gone to them. Actually for parihar yes but Birkholtz I couldn't find any diaries :/

Because kaiser is a guichet fanboy, nothing new here.

Go birkholtz for femurs or catagni for tibias.

I would never go to monegal since he prefers to use fitbone for CLL without any weight bearing which is an absolute joke if you are considering breaking both of your legs.

Yes i admit am Paley, Guichet and Rozbruch fanboy. Why? because they're the best in the field
