The induced membrane technique with BG or BTP graft can achieve bone healing in large bone defects secondary to CO and infected non-union in children and adolescents. The choice of bone substitute is important. Our preliminary results show graft integration and bone healing can be expected sooner if BTP is used as bone void filler.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
