BACKGROUND: The advantages of free muscle flaps for reconstruction of lower extremity defects have been largely reported to be superior to those of fasciocutaneous flaps. METHODS: One hundred seventy-four patients received 177 microsurgical free tissue transfers for distal third and ankle open tibial fractures. Patien…

BACKGROUND: Critical-sized bone defects of the tibia are complex injuries associated with significant problems that are difficult to treat, and they are associated with a significant burden of disease in clinical practice; however, the treatment of these cases has still been a challenge for orthopedic surgeons. The ai…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the results of bifocal compression-distraction method for the acute treatment of open tibia fractures with bone and soft-tissue loss. DESIGN: Patients were selected for bifocal compression-distraction (shortening and lengthening) who had open tibia fractures with bone and soft-tissue loss and a…

BACKGROUND: Implant-related infections with bacteria resistant to multiple antibiotics represent one of the major problems in orthopaedic surgery. It was our hypothesis that local application of bacteriophages, which are bacteria-destroying viruses, would be effective against biofilm-forming bacteria. METHODS: An impl…

The free anterolateral thigh flap is becoming one of the most preferred options for soft-tissue defect reconstruction. Between June of 1996 and August of 2000, 672 anterolateral thigh flaps were used in 660 patients in Chang Gung Memorial Hospital. A total of 439 flaps were cutaneous or fasciocutaneous flaps based on…

Orthopaedic drilling operations without optimum operating parameters by surgeons may cause bone defects such as bone fracture, cracks, osteolysis and tissue loss around the drilling zone. For the sake of optimum drilling parameters, an in vitro study was performed by considering the bone mineral density, bone sex, dri…
