Free Vascularized Fibular Graft for Distal Tibial and Ankle Arthrodesis
The free vascularized fibular graft (FVFG) to the tibia was first described by Taylor et al in 1975.1 Since then, the operation has evolved to include transfer of adjacentmuscle, and in 1983 Chen andYandescribedanosteocutaneousflap.2These advancements have provided a limb-sparing option to those patients once destined for amputation. Indications for these procedures now include trauma, chronic ...

متن کاملMidfoot reconstruction with free vascularized fibular graft after wide resection: a case report.
Malignant foot tumours are often treated with amputations due to anatomical difficulties. Limb salvage techniques are difficult to perform, as a stable, sensible and plantigrade foot should be obtained to prevent further problems.In this report, we present a midfoot reconstruction with a vascularized free fibula, osteomized in a V-shape after wide resection of a midfoot synovial sarcoma. We des...
متن کاملReconstruction Using a Free Vascularized Fibular Graft after Frozen Autograft Reconstruction for Osteosarcoma of the Distal Tibia: A Case Report
Recently we have been performing biological reconstruction for malignant bone tumors of the extremities using frozen autografts. Here we present a case treated with free vascularized fibular graft (FVFG) after this method. A 23-year-old man developed osteosarcoma in his left distal tibia. There was nonunion after frozen autograft reconstruction, which we treated with FVFG. Twenty-four months la...
متن کاملLengthening of a free fibular graft after sarcoma resection of the humerus.
We report a patient who had resection of the humerus for osteosarcoma, initial reconstruction with a free fibular graft of the humerus, and subsequent lengthening of the graft. A 9-cm (100% of free fibula length) lengthening was achieved to equalize the humerus length. A complication of regenerate fracture was treated successfully with plating. Four years after the initial surgery for lengtheni...
