Evolution and Development of Ilizarov Technique in the Treatment of Infected Long Bone Nonunion with or without Bone Defects

Orthopaedic Surgery | 2022 | Jun Li, Mingxin Li, Wenzhao Wang, Bohua Li

The treatment of infected bone nonunion and bone defects is a considerable challenge in the orthopedics field. The standard clinical therapy methods include local free bone transplantation, vascularized bone graft, and the Ilizarov technique; the first two are controversial due to the iatrogenic self‐injury. The Ilizarov bone transport technique has been widely used to treat in...
