Bone defect size and healing outcomes in femoral and tibial fracture-related bone defects treated with the Masquelet technique

Key Points

• The study aims to evaluate the relationship between bone defect size and healing outcomes after treatment with the Masquelet technique in fractures.
• Conducted a retrospective comparative analysis of fracture-related bone defects
• Focused on femoral and tibial fractures treated with the Masquelet technique
• Compared healing outcomes based on defect size
• Reported varying healing outcomes based on bone defect size
• Highlighted the effectiveness of the Masquelet technique for larger defects
• Observed significant improvements in healing rates with appropriate interventions
