ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Tibial fractures are the most common lower limb fractures. Some criteria such as open fractures and increasing open stage are known to be associated with high delayed union and pseudarthrosis rate. In cases of delayed or nonunion, classical treatment is autologous cancelous bone graft which is associated with high morbidity rate. The ideal treatment would be a percutaneous harvesting and grafting technique. As bone marrow autologous concentrate (BMAC) presents both advantages, we evaluated this technique from 2002 to 2007.METHODS:
This was a retrospective study of 43 cases of open tibial fractures with initial surgical treatment. The criteria of inclusion were open fracture and nonunion, delayed union or suspicion of delayed union.RESULTS:
In 23 cases (53.5 %) BMAC was successful. The success group had received significantly more CFU-F than the failure group (469 vs 153.10(3), p = 0.013). A threshold of 360.10(3) CFU-F grafted could be established over which there was 100 % success. BMAC done before 110 days after fracture had 47 % success and BMAC done since 110 days after fracture had 73 % success. BMAC success rate decreased with increasing initial fracture skin open stage. There was no BMAC success in cases of a fracture with a remaining gap of more than 4 mm. We had no complications with the technique at the iliac harvesting zone and tibia injection point.CONCLUSION:
BMAC is a technique that should be considered as one of the different alternatives for management of long-bone delayed and nonunion because of its effectiveness, low complication rate, preservation of bone stock and low cost.
