The use of bone bridges in transtibial amputations [PDF]
Revista do Hospital das Clínicas, 2000 We sought to describe the bone bridge technique in adults, and present a variation for use in children, as well as to present its applicability as an option in elective transtibial amputations. This paper presents a prospective study of 15 transtibial amputations performed between 1992 and 1995 in which the bone bridge technique was employed.
