چکیده
Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com membrane which is in fact a biological chamber. This prevents graft resorption by inducing vascularization and provides growth factors, it is a two-step procedure. The first step includes an extensive excision of infected and non-viable tissue, it is followed by careful stabilization of the bone and placement of cement spacer in the bone defect .and covered with a flap if required .The second step is performed at least 6 to 8 weeks after the first step, it includes removing the spacer and filling the biological space which has been created with cancellous graft or bone substitutes [1-4].

متن کاملEarly resection of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia and successful reconstruction using the Masquelet technique.
Congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia remains one of the most difficult orthopaedic problems. We describe early excision and the use of the Masquelet technique to reconstruct the bone defect in a child aged 14 months. Consolidation sufficient for complete weight-bearing was achieved by seven weeks. After two and a half years, the child was asymptomatic with a fully reconstructed tibia and no l...
متن کاملInfected tibia defect fractures treated with the Masquelet technique
The treatment after open and infected fractures with extensive soft tissue damage and bone deficit remains a challenging clinical problem. The technique described by Masquelet, using a temporary cement spacer to induce a membrane combined with reconstructive soft tissue coverage, is a possible solution. This study describes the work-up, operative procedure, complications, and the outcome of a h...
متن کاملProsthetic Reconstruction for a Child with a Congenital Bilateral Ear Deformity: Case Report
Objectives: Microtia is the most commonly seen congenital ear defect, and involves an auricular deformity either unilaterally or bilaterally. The aim of this study was to fabricate silicone prostheses for a child with bilateral microtia using an innovative technique. Methods: This method involved the construction of bilateral ear prostheses using clips, which were located within the layers o...
متن کاملBridging hard callus at 48 days in an open femoral shaft fracture with segmental defect treated with a first-stage Masquelet technique: I wasn’t expecting that
The Masquelet technique is a strategy for management of segmental bone defects. It is a two-stage procedure that involves inducing a synovial-like membrane that can be used for a bone graft. Segmental bone defects can occur following trauma and can accompany traumatic brain injury. There is a well-documented, albeit debated, association between traumatic brain injury and increased rate of new b...
