“…After removing the duplicates, 243 studies were screened, and 30 studies were included in the second phase to assess their eligibility. Eleven reports [10][11][12][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] of individual patient data (total of 115 patients) were used for this study. The flow chart of the selection process is presented in Figure 1.…”

“…Furthermore, only few studies provided detailed data regarding comorbidities, bone healing times, and weightbearing times of individual patient; we tried to contact the authors of each study to obtain this information, but our efforts were unsuccessful. Geographical trends in bone graft selections were evident; for example, RIA bone grafts were used much less often in Asia [20][21][22]. There was no explanation for this finding, but it might have been related to the different health insurance policies in Asian countries compared to those in European countries or the United States.…”

“…Long bone non-union treatment is always a challenge, due to the frequent multifactorial underlying cause [11][12][13][14][15][16] . While surgical treatment by means of appropriate fixation is frequently successful in case of hypertrophic non-unions, biological support is strictly needed when the non-union is not hypertrophic, confirming a certain limitation to regenerate bone at the injury site.…”

“…This technique was first proposed by Masquelet in the 1970s, and several modified procedures have been developed in subsequent years. [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33] Regarding surgical outcomes following this technique, most studies have shown satisfactory results. However, there are still two challenges to be overcome.…”
