Osseous defects in nonunited open fracture of the lower limbs are difficult to treat. Autogenous bone grafting is a promising treatment options, but a finite amount of autogenous bone graft is available from each individual and donor site morbidity remains a problem. These limitations have prompted the development and use of synthetic biomaterials such as hydroxyapatite (HA) ceramics. However, little information is available regarding the challenging cases such as nonunited open fractures The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the outcomes associated with the treatment of osseous defects in nonunited open fracture using novel HA ceramics.
