Die Masquelet-Technik zur Behandlung großer dia- und metaphysärer Knochendefekte

Abstract: A total of 6 patients (4 men, 2 women) aged 15-66 years with average bone defects of 7 cm (range 4-10 cm) were treated using the Masquelet technique. There were 2 aseptic femoral nonunions and 4 tibial nonunions (2 septic and 2 aseptic nonunions). One case was a periprosthetic tibial bone defect. Bone stabilization after debridement was performed using ring fixators on the tibia and an intramedullary nail and a locking plate on the femur, respectively. The second surgical intervention was performed after 6-9 w… Show more

“…For the secondary restoration of the bony structures, a number of established surgical options for the treatment of diaphyseal bone defects were available for the further clinical course: an autologous cancellous bone graft, the two-staged Masquelet technique, bone segment transport, or free microsurgical bone transfer. The aim was the "reconstruction of an infection-free, viable and load-bearing bone with the correct balance of axis, length and rotation plus sufficient soft-tissue coverage" [6].…”

“…The Masquelet technique for the management of long bone defects has been popularly used in managing traumatic defects of tibia as well as cases of infection. 4 12 This technique has shown to achieve good results when used for diaphyseal defects of the tibia. There have been no reports with regard to the results of this technique while managing defects of the distal femur.…”

“…Its disadvantages are a complicated operation, the requirement of special training/devices, multiple wire-related complications, long external fixation and poor patient tolerance. 3) The membrane induction technique, 16 - 18 also known as the Masquelet technique has gradually gained popularity in Europe in recent years. It was initially used for chronic osteomyelitis, repair of large bone defects after tumor resection, with encouraging results.…”
