Abstract
Introduction: Recently, the new technique of extracorporeally-irradiated bone autograft for the reconstruction of massive bone and joint defects after resection of malignant tumor has been reported. However, because irradiated bone graft was necrotic bone, serious problems remain including non-union, infection and fracture. Vascularized bone grafting (VBG) has been established as a safe and reliable procedure to reconstruct segmental can be expected to provide vascularity and mechanical stability at the recipient-graft junction. We report here the clinical outcomes including radiographic findings, functional analyses and complications, as well as a discussion of the advantages and indication of this approach.
