Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Ilizarov technique has obvious advantages in the treatment of tibial bone defect and can be used to treat various types of tibial bone defect. However, there are still many shortcomings in this technology, which need to be solved urgently. OBJECTIVE: To review the advantages, shortcomings and improvement strategies of Ilizarov technique in the treatment of tibia bone defect. METHODS: PubMed, CNKI and Wanfang databases from 1971 to 2019 were retrieved with the key words of “bone defect, bone transport, accordion maneuver, ultrasonography, energy spectrum CT, pin site infection” in English and Chinese, respectively. Totally 57 eligible articles were included to systematically summarize the advantages, shortcomings and improvement strategies of Ilizarov technique in the treatment of tibia bone defect. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Ilizarov technology has obvious advantages in the treatment of the tibia bone defect, combined with soft tissue injury, infection and deformity of the tibia bone defect. (2) New disinfectants, accordion technology, color Doppler ultrasound and energy spectrum CT are effective treatment methods for complications of bone transport technology, such as pin site infection, poor mineralization of new bone in the transfer area, and difficulty in healing at the docking site. These methods can reduce the incidence of complications. (3) It is still necessary to improve the existing treatment techniques or choose new methods to further reduce the incidence of complications.
