05/01/2013 - "The postoperative intraoral infection rate following iliac crest bone grafting was significantly greater than for rhBMP-2/demineralized bone matrix scaffold. "
04/01/2009 - "No local recurrence was detected at a mean of 59 months, while fracture (13.6%) eventually healed with bone grafting and revision of internal fixation, graft collapse (9%) (needed revision arthroplasty) and infection (9%), one cured and one converted to rotationplasty, were the major complications encountered. "
07/01/2008 - "An emphasis on indirect reduction techniques to restore limb alignment has improved the rate of fracture healing and decreased infection rates, fixation failure, and the need for bone grafting."
12/01/2001 - "While operative fixation utilizing either plate fixation or rigid intramedullary nail fixation has improved patient outcomes, the problems of malunion, nonunion, need for bone grafting, joint stiffness, and infection persist. "
01/01/1982 - "The treatment of chronic infection, often accompanied by loss of skin and bone substance, has been improved by microsurgical techniques that allow the combination of autogenous bone grafting with vascularized musculocutaneous flap transplantation. "

02/01/1993 - "The bone bar resection was effective in correcting the wrist joint deformity, and bone growth was expected without bone grafting."
01/01/2011 - "The Ilizarov external fixator allows for decreased surgical exposure and preservation of blood supply to bone, avoidance of bone grafting and internal fixation, and simultaneous lengthening and deformity correction, making it a very useful technique for femoral reconstruction."
01/01/2013 - "In this study, we present our approach to complex calvarial reconstruction with free tissue transfer without bone grafting while avoiding contour deformities in 1 efficient surgical procedure. "
03/01/2004 - "The clinical results of this study demonstrate that immediate implant placement in combination with HTR synthetic bone grafting of residual socket voids and crestal deformities is a predictable procedure and provides a good base for successful prosthetic reconstruction. "

01/01/2014 - "In conclusion, the procedure of one-stage posterior debridement, interbody fusion with autogenous bone grafting, and posterior fixation with pedicle screw is effective and safe for treating monosegmental thoracic and lumbar spinal tuberculosis in adults. "
10/15/2005 - "The authors think that the single-stage anterior autogenous bone grafting and instrumentation are a safe and effective method in the surgical management of spinal tuberculosis."
10/01/2009 - "The goal of this study was to assess the efficacy of one-stage surgical management for children with spinal tuberculosis by anterior decompression, bone grafting, posterior instrumentation, and fusion. "
02/01/2013 - "With thorough focus debridement, bone grafting, and internal fixation, the efficacy of ultra-short chemotherapy was similar to that of standard chemotherapy for the treatment of spinal tuberculosis. "
05/01/2010 - "The objective of this prospective study was to determine the efficacy of an antituberculous chemotherapy regimen by following a series of patients with spinal tuberculosis, for a minimum of 3 years, who underwent single-stage anterior radical debridement, autogenous bone grafting, and instrumentation. "

01/01/2015 - "Especially in craniofacial reconstructions like mastoid obliteration and orbital floor reconstructions, in grafting bone tumour defects, and in the treatment of osteomyelitis very promising results are obtained. "
07/01/1983 - "It was also effective in eleven patients with chronic lesions who required additional reconstructive procedures (arthrodesis, internal fixation, bone-grafting, or tendon-grafting), and in the treatment of chronic osteomyelitis when infected bone and soft tissue had to be liberally debrided. "
08/01/2008 - "The study shows that combined with perioperative antibiotic regimen, anterior instrumentation is effective and safe in the treatment of pyogenic vertebral osteomyelitis of thoracic and lumbar spine directly following radical debridement and autogenous bone grafting."
01/01/1990 - "If the six patients who refused additional bone graft surgery, the one patient who represented poor patient selection, and the patient who refused ankle arthrodesis are eliminated, the success rate for healing of the nonunion and resolving the osteomyelitis in this difficult patient population is: open bone cell graft, 66% (12/18); soft-tissue transfer 87.5%, (7/8); and posterolateral bone grafting, 87.5% (7/8). "
04/01/2014 - "This study was designed to identify the presence, type and origin of bacteria adjacent to the metal implant in the infected region in a canine model of pyogenic vertebral osteomyelitis treated with single-stage anterior autogenous bone grafting and instrumentation. "

04/01/1982 - "The stable plate-osteosynthesis is regarded as the best treatment in combination with an autologous bone grafting in cases of atrophic or defect-pseudarthrosis. "
01/01/2011 - "Excision of pseudarthrosis, intramedullary rodding, and cortical bone grafting is very effective in achieving union of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia but a proportion of children will require additional operations to deal with refractures and other complications. "
12/01/2014 - "The pseudarthrosis revision surgery with humeral head preserving re-osteosynthesis with bone transplantation is an effective treatment for non-unions of the proximal humerus and the proximal humeral shaft and the current results showed high bone consolidation rates. "
01/01/2011 - "This study evaluates the results of the treatment of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia by excision of the pseudarthrosis, transarticular intramedullary rodding, and onlay autogenous cortical bone grafting in a cohort of children followed till skeletal maturity. "
03/01/2009 - "The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term results of a technique consisting of excision of the pseudarthrosis, autologous bone grafting, and insertion of an intramedullary Kirschner wire into the tibia. "
