Popis: BackgroundBone transport techniques are crucial for managing large bone defects, but the optimal approach for different defect lengths remains unclear. This study aimed to compare bone regeneration rates between short bifocal bone transport (SBBT), long bifocal bone transport (LBBT), and trifocal bone transport (TBT) using pixel value ratio (PVR) as an objective quantitative measure.MethodsThis retrospective study included 60 patients undergoing lower limb bone transport, divided into SBBT (n = 22, defects
