Different reconstructive techniques have been described for such defects, including nonvascularized cancellous bone grafts, bone transport using the Ilizarov external fixator, and vascularized bone grafts.
In our previous study of 100 consecutive cases of bone transport using the Ilizarov method, we found 1 % refracture of the newly formed bone segment of the tibia, 17%% nonunion at the docking site in 10 femurs and 7 tibias, 10%% bone transport arrest due to the failure of distraction osteogenesis in 2 femurs and 8 tibias, and 4%% of cases had recurring infection [22].
