- W2510129886 abstract "For decades the treatment of chronic posttraumatic osteomyelitis associated with bone exposure has been one of the most serious problems in the field of orthopedic surgery. “Sterilization” of the osteomyelitic site, that is radical debridement of all infected tissue, is the basic requirement of the treatment; in the past, the remaining defect of the debrided area was closed with skin grafts, which were removed in a further stage, when the infection was ceased; then the defect was filled with muscle flap and bone graft of various types. Both soft tissue and osseous reconstruction took a relatively long period of time requiring several-stage treatment. We performed a retrospective study on 9 patients treated for chronic osteomyelitis of the upper limb (6 forearm – 3 arm) by means of free fibula vascularized bone graft, between 1992 and 2003 (7 male 2 female). All patients had been more than 2 previous surgical attempt with conventional treatment (sterilization and bone graft). In most of them (7 cases) a two-stage treatment was performed (resection and sterilization, eventually with muscle transfer, in the first stage and bone transfer in the second one); in other 3 cases a one-stage treatment was performed. Two cases required a composite tissue transfer with a skin pad to cover the exposure. The length of bone defect after extensive resection of necrotic bone from septic pseudoarthrosis ranged from 5 cm to 12 cm. In all cases there was no evidence of infection recurrence in the follow-up period. The mean period to obtain radiographic bone union was 4.1 months (range 2.5–6 months). In 2 cases secondary procedures have been carried out due to an aseptic non union in one site of synthesis (cruentation and compression plate). Functional results were always satisfactory although in the forearm a complete range of motion has never been achieved (plurioperated patients with DRUJ problems). Fibular grafts allow the use of a segment of diaphyseal bone which is structurally similar to the radius, ulna and humerus of sufficient length to reconstruct most skeletal defects. The vascularized fibular graft is indicated in patients where conventional bone grafting has failed or large bone defects, exceeding 5 cm, are observed. The application of microsurgical fibular transfers for reconstruction of the extremities allows repair of bone and soft-tissue defects when shortening is not possible with good functional results." @default.
