Lengthening of a One-Bone Forearm
Journal of Hand Surgery, 1998An 8-year-old girl presented with marked shortening of the right forearm due to destruction of both the radius and ulna secondary to neonatal osteomyelitis. A one-bone forearm operation was performed to achieve a stable forearm. Two years later, the one-bone forearm was lengthened for 6 months by callus distraction (callotasis) achieving 12 cm of extra

Growing Bone: Lengthening and Grafting
2021Reconstruction of extremities with segmental loss requires simultaneous and ongoing care of the patient’s overall physiology, extremity vascular status, infection treatment or prevention, and soft tissue coverage. However, for the bone itself, options for filling bone defects include distraction techniques and various grafting options.

[Bone lengthening in children].
Cirugia pediatrica : organo oficial de la Sociedad Espanola de Cirugia Pediatrica, 1994Since June 1987, were realized 45 limb lengthening (40 lower and 5 upper) in 34 children with between 3-15 years old. A dynamic axial fixator (DAF) system with telescoping capabilities, permits a slow distraction through a osteotomy and callotasis in 36 bones, and chondrodiatasis in 5.

Femur Lengthening with a Vascularized Tibia Bone Flap
Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1996A vascularized tibial bone flap based on a single nutrient vessel has been previously proposed for use in long-bone reconstruction. While the routine use of the tibia for donor bone tissue is precluded by its essential weight-bearing function, in select cases it provides a useful alternative to standard donor bone sources.

Thumb reconstruction through metacarpal bone lengthening
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1980The experience with thumb reconstruction through metacarpal bone lengthening in 35 patients treated over a period of 12 years is presented. In 25 cases a spontaneous consolidation of the gap between the distracted fragments occurred, whereas in the remaining 10 the gap was bridged by a bone graft. The elongation of the metacarpal achieved varied from 2

Bone lengthening (distraction osteogenesis): a literature review
Osteoporosis International, 2011Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is a surgical technique widely used in orthopedic surgery for the treatment of various pathological conditions such as leg length discrepancy, bone deformity or bone defects. The basic principle of the callotasis technique includes performing a transverse bone section before gradually distracting the two bone segments. New
