Abstract
The treatment of bone defects, in particular open fractures of the tibia, represents a significant health care concern for physicians and surgeons in the Commonwealth. Traditional methods of treatment, including those that utilize internal and/or external fixation devices, often have drawbacks. The Ilizarov method (callus distraction), which combines acute shortening with subsequent lengthening using an external ring fixator, offers a new approach to treating bone defects. The authors describe the Ilizarov method, discuss Ilizarov's research and his development of the callus distraction technique, and review the growing body of English-language literature assessing the use of the Ilizarov method.
