Download PDF

Abstract

1. A method of bridging gaps in long bones is described, using cancellous insert grafts supplemented by internal fixation with a metal plate.

2. The experimental work on transplantation of bone is reviewed in so far as it affects the practical problem of bone grafting.

3. Twenty-seven cases have been treated, with no failures. Seven of these are presented as illustrations.
