[Continuity resections of long tubular bones and subsequent bone reconstruction].
The osseous restitution of extended deficiency pseudarthroses is possible by means of modern osteosynthesis methods which exactly immobilize the bone. However, numerous operations are required in order to prevent infections and to reconstruct the osseous stability by subsequent bone chip grafts. The treatment may take three to five years, and relapse and even failure will occur frequently. This aspects have to be discussed with the patient before beginning such a treatment, and there must not be any doubt that the patient really desires to be treated in this way.
