“…[32][33][34] When a septic nonunion is present, eradication of infection is necessary prior to management via a staged approach. 35,36 With technological advancements, different approaches and positioning techniques have been developed to mitigate complications, aid in fracture reduction, and avoid joint perforation. 22,37,38 These include the infrapatellar approach to the tibia, which consists of patellar tendon splitting (transpatellar) versus patellar tendon sparing (medial and lateral parapatellar) and the suprapatellar approach.…”
