We retrospectively studied four patients who were treated with vascularized iliac bone graft for reconstruction of the tibia. The average length of the graft was 9.8 cm. The follow-up period was 11-18 years (average, 14.8 years). Although two of them were osteomyelitis, no recurrence occurred. We al

Background. Functional restoration following resection or traumatic injury to the mandible depends on the reliability of the bony reconstruction to heal primarily and support endosseous implants. Although vascularized bone flaps (VBF) and nonvascularized bone grafts (NVBG) are both widely used to re
FTIR analysis of sequential biopsy samples of the primary and replacement segments obtained from 70 to 80-cm long carotid-femoral bypass grafts implanted bilaterally in the dog indicate that the healing pattern is similar over the entire length of these grafts. Preliminary analysis of the spectra al
