Bone graft is essential in various orthopaedic procedures.
Among the many donor sites for harvesting autologous
bone graft, the iliac crest has been the most commonly used.
However, for foot and ankle procedures the proximal tibia
has gained popularity as an alternative donor site due to its
anatomic proximity to the primary surgical site. In this article
we evaluated the possible complications associated with
harvesting proximal tibia bone graft. Our study showed the
low incidence of morbidity in harvesting proximal tibia bone
graft, thereby providing a good alternative donor for foot
and ankle procedures.
