A New Approach for Complex Upper Limb Revisions Utilizing the Clavicula Pro Humero Technique: A Case Report
1Department of Orthopaedics and Trauma, Royal Adelaide Hospital, South Australia, Australia.
Case:
A complex case is described involving limb salvage using a combination of the clavicula pro humero technique with a free vascularized fibular graft to span the defect following a failed megaprosthetic reconstruction. This is believed to be the first description of this approach for a very difficult problem.
Conclusion:
In the setting of infection and minimal bone stock, conventional reconstruction options for the proximal aspect of the humerus were unsatisfactory. This new technique provides a biologic, immunocompetent option for limb salvage.
