Popis: | The authors believe that the radical excision of diseased bone and of the ischaemic and fibrosed soft tissue, the immediate covering of the defect created with a split-thickness skin graft, and, when necessary, the subsequent filling of the defect with bone covered with a pedicle skin graft constitute the best treatment for chronic infection of bone. While these procedures obviously are not advocated as a routine treatment for joint tuberculosis or septic arthritis, it is believed that their usefulness in certain of these cases has been demonstrated. |
