Experience of transosseous osteosynthesis in the treatment of nonunited fractures, pseudoarthrosis and bone defects of the lower extremities in children

37 children and adolescents were treated with the method of transosseous osteosynthesis. Limb length restoration and consolidation in the area of pseudarthrosis were obtained in 35 patients. In 2 children with congenital pseudoarthrosis of the shin bones, fusion did not occur due to the development of a spoke infection, which prompted the Ilizarov apparatus to be dismantled ahead of time.
