Fibular Grafting

Forearm fractures in children complicated with non-union are uncommon. Various methods have previously been reported to manage this condition. Well documented techniques would include iliac crest grafting, cancellous insert grafting, ulnar segment grafting, cortical tibial grafting, vascularized fibular grafting and bone transport by ring fixation. The authors present a case of a child with an atrophic non-union of the ulna who was successfully treated with a cortico-cancellous tibial strut bone graft.

AbstractSymptomatic lunotriquetral coalition is very rare and need open surgery after failure of conservative treatment. We report a case of a symptomatic congenital lunotriquetral coalition type 1 according to the Minaar classification, at the left wrist of a 14-year-old boy. We performed an arthroscopic treatment with two compression screws and without cancellous bone grafting. Healing was obtained at 2 months postoperatively.

Talonavicular (TN) coalition is a rare pathological union of the talus and navicular bones. We report the case of a 7-year-old girl with a symptomatic TN coalition, who underwent operative management with a lateral column lengthening procedure using autologous iliac crest bone grafting. There are no complications to report and the graft was incorporated at an early stage. At 3 year follow-up the patient has remained pain-free since the operation and maintained alignment. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of TN coalition treated with reconstructive surgery in a paediatric patient.
