I am considering doing tibia surgery with Becker this year and potentially a femur surgery at the start of 2024 with the new Stryde nail. A big part of my decision is the impact the lengthening is going to have on my athleticism, running, skiing and etc. I’m only going for small amounts of 4-5 cm per segment and proportionality wise tibia surgery would look nicer on me.
I just really need your opinion (for those who have done either one or both) on whether tibia surgery would have more impact on the things mentioned rather than femur surgery.
