Application of Masquelet technique across bone regions - A case series

Managing large bone defects in the setting of acute open fractures remains a challenging problem. We present a retrospective case series of acute lower limb open fractures with bone loss in the diaphysis, metaphysis and epiphysis addressed using the Masquelet technique. All cases present had at leas...

description Managing large bone defects in the setting of acute open fractures remains a challenging problem. We present a retrospective case series of acute lower limb open fractures with bone loss in the diaphysis, metaphysis and epiphysis addressed using the Masquelet technique. All cases present had at least 1 year follow-up with evidence of bony union and good functional outcome. Masquelet technique is both versatile and effective in managing acute open fracture with bone loss across bone regions.
