Treatment of femoral defective osteomyelitis with minimal invasive plates

Although recent treatment modalities reduced chronic osteomyelitis, it is still a challenging problem for both orthopaedic surgeons and patients. Especially treatment of femoral osteomyelitis with defective nonunion is reasonably difficult. Most accepted treatment option is external fixation. But th...

description Although recent treatment modalities reduced chronic osteomyelitis, it is still a challenging problem for both orthopaedic surgeons and patients. Especially treatment of femoral osteomyelitis with defective nonunion is reasonably difficult. Most accepted treatment option is external fixation. But the duration needed for external fixation may be too long for patient compliance. To reduce external fixation duration several methods were described. In this study we described a method for reconstruction of infected femoral defective nonunions using minimal invasive plates.
