Efficacy comparison of trifocal bone transport using unilateral external fixator for femoral and tibial bone defects caused by infection
Abstract Background This study aimed to evaluate the clinical and functional outcomes of patients with femoral and tibial critical-sized bone defect (CSBD) treated by trifocal bone transport using the Ilizarov method. Methods From March 2011 and January 2017, clinical and radiographic data of patien...
