Аннотация
CASE: Given the rare incidence of sternal nonunion after traumatic injury, literature describing the management of posttraumatic sternal reconstruction is limited. We present a case of a 54-year-old man with a history of traumatic chest wall injury with multiple unsuccessful attempts at sternal repair who presented with chronic sternal nonunion and persistent bone defect. Sternal reconstruction using a vascularized double-barrel free fibula flap with rigid fixation in multiple planes was performed, with confirmed bony union at 6 months.
CONCLUSION: This novel approach to sternal nonunion management allowed effective bridging of posttraumatic sternal bone defects while facilitating osseous integration and long-term stabilization.
