A variety of vascularized bone grafts can be used. The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of two types of vascularized bone graft -- a distal radial pedicle graft and a fre...

متن کاملVascularized periosteal transfer from the medial femoral condyle: is it compulsory to include the cortical bone?
BACKGROUND The corticoperiosteal flap from the medial femoral condyle has become the workhorse in the management of recalcitrant nonunions with vascularized periosteum. Inclusion of the outer condylar cortex has been advocated to avoid damaging the osteogenic capacity of the periosteum and is at present an ordinary technical step in the procedure. PATIENTS A clinical prospective study was und...
