'Three-in-One minimally invasive approach to surgical treatment of pediatric pathological fractures with wide bone loss through bone cysts: ESIN, curettage and packing with injectable HA bone substitute. A retrospective series of 116 cases.''

摘要

Introduction: The outcome of pathological fracture due to large aggressive benign stage 3 Dormans and Flynn lesions [6] is often unsatisfactory and the rate of recurrence is high. No single technique has been considered safe and successful. Many Authors suggested curettage and bone grafting as the unique effective treatment in cases of large defect but, because of the invasive and complex nature of the operation (it needs a double-step procedure), it is not preferred. The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of a minimally invasive treatment in one step through ESIN, curettage and packing with self-setting calcium phosphate cement.
