RESUMO
Objective:For further exploring the feasibility,we have treated the middle and infe- rior femoral bone fracture nonunion by the transplantation of bone flap with ascending and transvers branch of the lateral femoral circumflex vessels.Method:The technique,on the basis of anatomical study have been designed to treat the femoral bone fracture nonunion by the transplantation of bone flap with ascending and transvers branch which pedicle was descendant branch of the lateral femoral circumflex vessel.Results:8 cases of middle and inferior femoral fracture nonunion had been treated by this method.At follow-up of 1 year 5 months to 4 years 6 months,the results have been satisfacto- ry.Conclusions:The method of the transplantation of the bone flap with ascending and transvers branch of the lateral femoral circumflex vessel for the treatment of middle and inferior femoral fracture nonunion has the adventages of simplicity,easiness,reliability.
