Affected Tissue

Congenital pseudoarthrosis of the tibia is an uncommon but important condition, often associated with neurofibromatosis, in which the tibia has a region of abnormal bone prone to fracture and subsequent non-union with a fibrocartilaginous pseudoarthrosis forming at the fracture site. The limb is prone to malalignment and distal deformity. Management requires correction and stabilization of the deformity with excision of the affected tissue of the tibia and reconstruction either with bone grafting, transport, or transfer of vascularized fibula.

Vascularized Fibula Graft

Congenital ulnar pseudarthrosis is a very rare condition. Two cases are reported in addition to 36 already reported in the English literature. One of the cases reported had a “one-hone forearm” procedure done, with a satisfactory result after 6 years. The second case had a free vascularized fibula graft procedure with restoration of the bony alignment and union after 8 months of follow-up.
