Bone morphogenetic protein 7 in the treatment of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia

Bone morphogenetic protein 7 in the treatment of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia.

We describe a 13-year-old boy with atrophic tibial pseudarthrosis associated with neurofibromatosis who had undergone nine unsuccessful operations. Eventually, union was obtained by the use of bone morphogenetic protein 7 in conjunction with intramedullary stabilisation and autologous bone graft.

Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein-7 (rhBMP-7) A Report of Five Treatment of Congenital Pseudarthrosis of the Tibia with Recombinant

Combined treatment of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia, including recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2: a case series.

The use of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) for the treatment of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia has been investigated in only one previous study, with promising results. The aim of this study was to determine whether rhBMP-2 might improve the outcome of this disorder. We reviewed the medical records of five patients with a mean age of 7.4 years (2.3 to 21) with c...

Congenital Pseudarthrosis of the Tibia

Forty cases of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia were reviewed. The results were assessed so as to emphasise function rather than simply the presence or absence ofunion. At the time ofreview, 14 patients had undergone amputation; eight others had non-union or tenuous union. No surgical procedure except the Farmer operation (a composite skin and bone pedicle graft from the other leg) showed...
