Distraction osteogenesis using a monolateral external fixator for infected non-union of the femur with bone loss.
PURPOSE To review records of 15 patients who underwent distraction osteogenesis/bone transport using a monolateral external fixator for infected non-union of the femoral shaft. METHODS 13 men and 2 women aged 18 to 47 years underwent adequate debridement and resection of nonviable bone, followed by bone transport using a monolateral external fixator for infected non-union of the femoral shaft...
متن کاملDistraction osteogenesis for tibial nonunion with bone loss using combined Ilizarov and Taylor spatial frames versus a conventional circular frame
This retrospective review assesses 55 tibial nonunions with bone loss to compare union achieved with combined Ilizarov and Taylor spatial frames (I-TSF) versus a conventional circular frame with the standard Ilizarov procedure. Seventeen (31 %) of the 55 nonunions were infected. Thirty patients treated with I-TSF were compared with 25 patients treated with a conventional circular frame. In the ...
متن کاملSubsidence of callotasis zone in distraction osteogenesis after external fixator removal, measured by RSA
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In clinical practice, achieved lengthening of a callotasis zone should be maintained after the external fixator has been removed. The common understanding has been that the regenerated bone may subside. To investigate this, we used high-resolution radiostereometric analysis (RSA) with accurate measurement of the lengthening zone. PATIENTS AND METHODS We assessed the lon...
متن کاملAnesthetic concerns of external maxillary distraction osteogenesis.
BACKGROUND External maxillary distractions present additional anesthetic concerns to the existing complexity of the patient with craniofacial disorder. The distraction hardware is rigidly fixed to the cranium and projects in the frontofacial midline, thus limiting oronasal airway access. METHODS A review of 16 patients (10 male, 6 female) having external maxillary distraction was done. Patien...
