Masquelet technique with radical debridement and alternative fixation in treatment of infected bone nonunion

Abstract: BackgroundInfected bone nonunion is the toughest problem in fracture-related infection, leading to high disability and recurrence. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the Masquelet technique with radical debridement and alternative fixation in the management of infected bone nonunion.Patients and MethodsA retrospective study of prospectively collected data in two trauma centers was performed from 2016 to 2020.

“…Masquelet's technique has been applied in human patients for reconstruction of severe segmental bone defects, treatment of osteomyelitis, and infected or recalcitrant non-unions through a two-stage approach [1][2][3][4] . The first stage includes the induced membrane development after the debridement of tissues and the application of a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) cement spacer 1,5 .…”
