The management of segmental bone loss associated with forearm fractures
Abstract:
Eighteen fractures of one or both bones of the forearm, including fourteen with segmental defects, were treated with an interposed corticocancellous iliac-bone graft. A plate and screws were used to fix the fracture fragments and graft. The technique allowed early motion of the extremity. Good results were achieved in all but six of the patients. The one poor result with non-union and five others with limited motion were related primarily to infection.
