3 LONG BONE DEFECTS 8/9/2013 3

4 DEBRIDEMENT Bone segment loss Soft tissue loss Leg-length discrepancy Deformity 8/9/2013 4

5 TREATMENT TECHNIQUES Papineau technique Internal fixation Compression Plates Vascularized free tissue transfer Soft tissue Bone Combined Technique Biologic Adjuncts (BMP s)

6 EX FIX TECHNIQUES Compression with circular fixator Acute shorthening and lenghtening (bifocal) Bone segment transport technique Bone segment transport over an intramedullary nail with external fixator (combined technique)

11 Group 1 (Bone Segment Transport) Group 2 (Acute Shortening+ lengthening) Radical debridement + temporary external fixation+antibioticimpregnated cement Free Flep 5 1 Docking Site Grafting

12 CASE- BST 40y F, infected atrophic nonunion

22 STATISTICAL ANALYSIS Mann-Whitney U test was used for statistical analysis. EFİ EFT BHT Complication number per patient Grefting

23 Results Group 1 (Bone Segment Transport) Group 2 (Acute Shortening+ lengthening) Follow up (month) 55,6 (12-66) 39,9 (13-80) EFI (day/cm)-mean 62,60 48,39* Paley bone score 21 excellent, 4 good, 4 poor 35 excellent, 8 good, 2 fair Bone Healing Index(BHI) (month/cm) ,35* *p<0,

24 EFI Bone Healing Time STATISTICAL ANALYSIS Group Group

25 COMPLICATIONS Problem Group 1 (Bone Segment Transport) Grade 2 pin tract infection 17 cases, Limited ROM of the ankle joint 4 case Group 2 (Acute Shortening) Delayed maturation regenerate site 10 cases Grade 2 pin infection 6 case Obstacle Bone grafting 16 cases Bone grafting 8 cases Sequela Two nonuion Varus deformity two case Valgus deformity two case 10⁰ procurvatum deformity one case

26 Complication number per patients COMPLICATIONS Group

27 BONE SEGMENT TRANSPORT Defects 7<cm Vascular problems Muscle insufficiency around foot/ankle Patients unable to adapt postoperative rehabilitation Healthy soft tissue envelope

28 ACUTE S & L Provide an acute (+ gradual) correction up to 7 cm with attend to foot vasculary circulation Bone contact surface %50> Butterfly fragment or comminuted fracture Soft tissue defect <3 cms (Acute correction promotes primary closure of the defect)

29 CONCLUSION Bone segment transport and acute compression + lengthening technique can be used safely for CM type 3-4 OM treatment. Patient selection is the key point. Soft tissue envelope around the tibia!!! There was no statistically significant differences for complications numbers per patient between the groups. BST has a longer EFT that s why more complications are expected. In appropriate cases, acute compression technique may provide higher patients satisfaction because of shorter external fixator time, EFİ,BHİ
