Ilizarov external fixator for length salvage in infected amputated nonunions
Abstract:
The technique of compression distraction induced osteogenesis via the Ilizarov external fixator system has been used for a variety of traumatic limb pathologies that necessitate boney union and limb preservation. In this case report, we describe an uncommon scenario were an Ilizarov external fixator was used to treat an infected nonunion following a below knee amputation.
