Pseudoarthrosis for bone defect of the forearm. On purpose of a case.

Abstract

Bone defects in the extremities are not only caused by open fractures with loss of a bone fragment, but also by tumoral or pseudotumoral lesions, osteomyelitis and congenital malformations such as pseudoarthrosis where there are several treatments within them free or non-vascularized fibula grafts with several advantages that provide a better evolution. Therefore, our objective is to show the evolution and results of a patient admitted, treated and operated on with the diagnosis of Pseudoarthrosis due to a large bone defect of the radius which was reconstructed with an autologous free fibula graft, visualizing the course of the patient and the final result.
