Knee arthrodesis with lengthening: Experience of using Ilizarov techniques to salvage large asymmetric defects following infected peri-articular fractures
چکیده انگلیسی
Bone loss and infection both reduce the success rate of any arthrodesis. However, by optimising the host environment with eradication of infection by radical debridement, soft-tissue flaps when necessary and bone transport techniques to close the defect, one can achieve arthrodesis and salvage a useful limb. The residual LLD can result from not accounting for later impaction at peg and socket sites, which had the effect of increasing LLD beyond the desirable amount. We therefore recommend continuing the lengthening for an additional 1-2 cm to allow for this.
