OBJECTIVES: The purposes of this study were to assess clinical and radiographic outcomes following plate-assisted bone segment transport (PABST) in large bone defects of the lower extremities.
DESIGN: Retrospective study of prospectively collected data.
SETTING: Level-1 trauma center located in Germany.
PATIENT SELECTION CRITERIA: Patients who underwent PABST and were at least 1 year postoperatively were included.
OUTCOME MEASURES AND COMPARISONS: Demographic data were collected. Radiographic apparent bone gap (RABG), time to consolidation, time to full weight-bearing, and consolidation index were calculated. Numeric rating scale, lower extremity functional scale (LEFS), and complications were assessed.
RESULTS: Fifteen patients [13 male; mean age 51 years (range, 20-75)] underwent PABST and had follow-up at a mean of 29.1 months. The tibia was affected in 8 and the femur in 7 patients. Preoperative RABG was 60 mm [interquartile range (IQR): 40-125], and bone defects were caused by septic nonunions in 73% of patients. Fourteen patients (93%) demonstrated consolidated transport callus at 7.3 months [95% confidence interval (95% CI), 6-8.5], and 9 patients (60%) demonstrated complete consolidation of both docking site and transport callus at 11.5 months (95% CI, 7.3-15.3). Postoperative RABG was 0.1 mm (IQR: 0-0.8), and consolidation index was 1.9 months/cm (95% CI, 1.3-2.5). All patients achieved full weight-bearing at 8.7 months (IQR: 6.5-10.3). LEFS was 42 (95% CI, 34-50), and numeric rating scale was 3 (95% CI, 2-4). Patients treated for tibial defects had a significantly higher consolidation rate compared with patients treated for femoral defects ( P = 0.040).
CONCLUSIONS: PABST demonstrated high consolidation of transport callus with few complications. Although full weight-bearing was achieved in all patients, complete consolidation of the docking site was only present in 60% of cases.
