Hello friends,
I had Dr Salameh and he told me the details. He made a recession through multiple very small holes in gastrocnemus muscle. So the muscle can grow naturally. Perhaps this is why I have all the strength in my legs.

For the pricing, as of today he gave me that for you:

25 000 euros including the Surgery, follow up, physiotherapy, X-ray and bandages. The website you can read more information:
http://www.lengthening-sldf.com

I think he has designed a new version of the fixator (Salamehfix) which is more compact. The link to the videos of someone who did 8 cm and can run with the device.

The frames look very convenient to wear. Why do they not have worldwide acceptance? Do they permit this device in Germany?

Ilizarov frames have faster healing and consolidation time, also they can fix deformities. Monorails and frames like that are more comfortable but the actual healing time of the bone is somewhat slower, and I’m not sure about their ability to fix deformities

The doctor claims it can be used for deformity correction and also he does not insert a nail like they do for monorails (before or after lengthening). If the rest of the world has not started using it then there must be something it's lacking in.

11 cm on tibia = wheelchair.
You can have 11 cm by making 5 cm on tibia and 6 cm on femur.
