Internal, obviously.. But what about Ilizarov vs LON vs LATN?

Hmm okay. If I were to do external I'd probably do LON because you don't need them to be on nearly as long and then just scar revision.

The scar on the knee is definitely the more noticable one. But externals stay on for so much longer than LON/LATN that it makes it seem like the timing trade off isn't worth it.

Price, but that's the only thing. I could up with money with externals by 2017, for intervals it'll be years. So that's what my thought process is. Like I said, I still haven't come close to deciding. I appreciate the honesty though.
