Repairing large segment bone defects is still a clinical challenge. Bone tissue prefabrication
shows great translational potentials and has been gradually accepted clinically. Existing …

The use of fibular graft for the reconstruction of bone defects has been demonstrated to be a
reliable method. The aim of this study was to assess the clinical outcome of graft union …

Introduction In adults, treatment of recalcitrant long bone non-union is extremely
challenging, with poorly vascularised and atrophic defects unresponsive to standard non …

Introduction The induced membrane technique for the treatment of large bone defects
consists of a 2-stage procedure. In the first stage, a polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) cement …

Background Vascularized periosteal graft have demonstrated a tremendous bone healing
capacity in children. The objective is to report outcomes on the use of vascularized tibial …

The clinical translation of bone tissue engineering for reconstructing large bone defects has
not advanced without hurdles. The in vivo bioreactor (IVB) concept may therefore bridge …

Bone nonunion in the pediatric population usually occurs in the context of highly
unfavorable biological conditions. Recently, the vascularized fibular periosteal flap has been …

Purpose We hypothesized that a vascularized ulnar periosteal pedicled flap (VUPPF) is a
versatile graft applicable in adult patients that yields good outcomes and is a reliable …

Purpose Through an anatomical review, the aim of this study is to define the ulnar periosteal
branches of the posterior interosseous vessels (PIV). In addition, we report the clinical utility …

Purpose The purpose of this report is to evaluate the results of extending vascularized
fibular grafts (VFG) with vascularized periosteum (VPG) in bone defect reconstruction in …
