[Restorative-reconstructive surgery of the sequelae of osteomyelitis of the lower extremities].
Results of reconstructive-restorative operations on 40 patients with sequellae of acute hematogenic osteomyelitis of lower extremities are described. Most frequent of them are pathologic dislocations, axial extremity, ankylosis and contractures of large vessels in a faulty position. Extrafocal compression-distraction osteosynthesis after Ilizarov was used. Little-traumatic character of the method, stable fixation and early functional loading gave smooth course of the postoperative period and good anatomo-functional results in most of the patients.
