SYNOSTOSIS OPERATION FOR PERSISTENT NON-UNION OF THE TIBIA

A Case Report

HENRY MILCH M.D., F.A.C.S.1

1 Associate Attending Orthopaedic Surgeon, The Hospital for Joint Diseases

The operative procedure described for the treatment of persistent non-union or bone defects in the tibia is intended as a last resort in cases in which the simpler, more routine operative measures have failed. In general, the indications are those for the Huntington operation, and it is believed that the risks of a subsequent. operation may be minimized by employing the procedure here described.
