Treatment of Infected Gap Non-Union of Tibia with Ilizarov Technique: A Case Report

Treatment of infected gap non-union of tibia occurring mostly after trauma and often complicated by infection is difficult to treat. Daily clinical practice in fixation, soft tissue management, and antibiotic therapy, treating infected gap nonunion of the tibia remains a problem for Orthopaedic surgeons. Management includes thorough debridement, stabilization of the fracture, and reconstruction of the bone defect. The study's goal was to evaluate the Ilizarov fixator frame's effectiveness in treating tibial gap nonunion.
