Abstract:
Objective To probe the repair effect of bone defect after getting rid of free bone in chronic osteomyelitis patients. Method Eighteen chronic osteomyelitis patients were reconstructed with vascularized fibula graft at one stage after getting rid of free bone and 2 cases were reconstructed with regional transplantation of pedic fibula after inflammable bone segment were exsected. Result Twenty chronic osteomyelitis patients who were treated with vascularized fibula graft or regional transplantation of pedic fibula after getting rid of free bone were followed up 3 - 6 months (mean 3. 5 months). The reconstructed bone unioned well,the inflammation of all bones near to joints were controlled; the repaired limbs achieved satisfactory function and outline. Conclusion The operation to reconstruct bone defect after getting rid of free bone in chronic osteomyelitis patients with vascularized fibula graft or regional transplantation of pedic fibula primerally is a good method' The advantage lies in avoiding the long alteration period of free bone, bettering the blood circulation of receipt region, controlling inflammation, shortening the resident period,times and operation times,and so. The method is a good attempt to repair inflammatory bone defect using vascularized bone graft.
