Background: Numerous operative procedures around the foot and ankle use bone graft to augment healing. Autologous bone graft remains the preferred type for these procedures. This can be harvested from the iliac crest, but complications are frequent. The purpose of our study was to investigate the option of harvesting the bone graft from the ipsilateral distal tibia or calcaneus. Method: Bone graft was harvested in 114 patients from the distal tibia (70 patients) or calcaneus (44 patients). The patients were followed postoperatively for an average of 16 (range 5 to 28) months and were evaluated for complications (minor and major), satisfaction, and healing rates. Results: There were no major complications. Ten patients (8.7%) had minor complications including initial incisional sensitivity or local numbness, none of which affected function or required additional treatment. Satisfaction rate for the procedure was 100%. Conclusion: Use of autologous bone graft harvested from the ipsilateral distal tibia or calcaneus is a safe and reliable alternative to iliac crest bone graft harvest for operative procedures of the foot and ankle.

Achieving fusion in osseous procedures about the foot and ankle presents unique challenges to the surgeon. Many patients have comorbidities that reduce osseous healing rates, and the limited space and high weightbearing demand placed on fusion sites makes the choice of bone graft, bone graft substitute, or orthobiologic agent of utmost importance. In this review, we discuss the essential characteristics of grafts, including their osteoconductive, osteoinductive, osteogenic, and angiogenic properties. Autologous bone graft remains the gold standard and contains all these properties. However, the convenience and lack of donor site morbidity of synthetic bone grafts, allografts, and orthobiologics, including growth factors and allogenic stem cells, has led to these being used commonly as augments. Level of Evidence: Level V, expert opinion.

Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiologic outcomes of patients younger than 20 years, treated with the arthroscopic-talus autologous matrix-induced chondrogenesis (AT-AMIC) technique and autologous bone graft for osteochondral lesion of the talus (OLT). Methods: Eleven patients under 20 years (range 13.3-20.0) underwent the AT-AMIC procedure and autologous bone graft for OLTs. Patients were evaluated preoperatively (T0) and at 6 (T1), 12 (T2), and 24 (T3) months postoperatively, using the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle and Hindfoot (AOFAS) score, the visual analog scale and the SF-12 respectively in its Mental and Physical Component Scores. Radiologic assessment included computed tomographic (CT) scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and intraoperative measurement of the lesion. A multivariate statistical analysis was performed. Results: Mean lesion size measured during surgery was 1.1 cm3 ± 0.5 cm3. We found a significant difference in clinical and radiologic parameters with analysis of variance for repeated measures ( P < .001). All clinical scores significantly improved ( P < .05) from T0 to T3. Lesion area significantly reduced from 119.1 ± 29.1 mm2 preoperatively to 77.9 ± 15.8 mm2 ( P < .05) at final follow-up as assessed by CT, and from 132.2 ± 31.3 mm2 to 85.3 ± 14.5 mm2 ( P < .05) as assessed by MRI. Moreover, we noted an important correlation between intraoperative size of the lesion and body mass index (BMI) ( P = .011). Conclusions: The technique can be considered safe and effective with early good results in young patients. Moreover, we demonstrated a significant correlation between BMI and lesion size and a significant impact of OLTs on quality of life. Level of Evidence: Level IV, retrospective case series.

Aims We present our experience of using a metal-backed prosthesis and autologous bone graft to treat gross glenoid bone deficiency. Patients and Methods A prospective cohort study of the first 45 shoulder arthroplasties using the SMR Axioma Trabecular Titanium (TT) metal-backed glenoid with autologous bone graft. Between May 2013 and December 2014, 45 shoulder arthroplasties were carried out in 44 patients with a mean age of 64 years (35 to 89). The indications were 23 complex primary arthroplasties, 12 to revise a hemiarthroplasty or resurfacing, five for aseptic loosening of the glenoid, and five for infection. Results Of the 45 patients, 16 had anatomical shoulder arthroplasties (ASA) and 29 had reverse shoulder arthroplasties (RSA). Postoperatively, 43/45 patients had a CT scan. In 41 of 43 patients (95%), the glenoid peg achieved > 50% integration. In 40 of 43 cases (93%), the graft was fully or partially integrated. There were seven revisions (16%) but only four (9%) required a change of baseplate. Four (25%) of the 16 ASAs were revised for instability or cuff failure. At two-year radiological follow-up, five of the 41 cases (11%) showed some evidence of lucent lines. Conclusion The use of a metal baseplate with a trabecular titanium surface in conjunction with autologous bone graft is a reliable method of addressing glenoid bone defects in primary and revision RSA setting in the short term. ASAs have a higher rate of complications with this technique.

Background: Congenital pseudoarthrosis of the clavicle (CPC) is rare and may require treatment, usually because of an unacceptable appearance or occasionally because of pain in an adolescent patient. Spontaneous union is unknown, and consequently any desired union requires open reduction and bone grafting. Many authors recommend performing the operation at the age of 3–5 years and using different fixation methods. We present our experience with three cases and literature review in an attempt to further elucidate the appropriate timing of the procedure and the fixation method. Methods: This was a retrospective review of three cases presenting with pseudoarthrosis of the clavicle. All cases were treated by curettage of the pseudoarthrosis, with the void filled using full-thickness ileac crest autologous bone graft and bridging plate—one compression and two anatomical, at different ages. We performed a literature review with emphasis on timing of the procedure, fixation method and complications. Results: All patients healed with good callus formation. One patient (5-year-old female treated using a compression plate) experienced overlying skin irritation and underwent removal of the plate. There were no restriction of movement, pain or any other complaint on the final follow-up. We did not find any difference in the operating complexity at different ages, but when a compression plate was used, it had to be removed later due to bulging of the plate. Discussion: No clinical difference was observed between earlier and late operation. Therefore, we suggest performing a curettage of the pseudoarthrosis, gapping the void using autologous bone graft, and using an anatomical bridging plate.
