Our initial experiments in replacement extensive defects of bone tissue of shinbone with a new device

Annotation:

The scientific work presents initial experiments on the replacement of widespread defects of bone tissue of long bones with a new device. A described technique is for restoring the length of limbs in defects by lengthening with a new device.

Objectivity: To analyze the efficiency of treatment posttraumatic, post-resection defects of long bones by using a new device in specialized department of bone-purulent complications.

Materials and Methods:

The efficiency of new device was studied and analyzed (Patent #2703651, Patent #194945, Patent #193941, Russian Federation) during treatment of 8 patients with extensive defects of bone tissue of tibial shaft in specialized department of bone-purulent complications in 2019-2020. According to Gustilo-Anderson classification 6 patients had III A type, 2 patients had III B. According to J.W.May all patients had 4 type, it means the defect of tibial shaft is more than 6sm. The patients were divided into 2 groups. 1st group included 5 patients treated for open fracture with defect of shinbone diaphysis were healed by Ilizarov’s classical method.

The other 3 patients were treated with help of a new device. 3(37,5%) of 8 patients were females and 5 (62,5%) were males. Division of patients according to age: 2 patients (25%) at 18-25, 3 patients (37,5%) at 26-35, 2 patients (25%) at 36-49, 1 (12,5%) patient is at more than 50.
