Traumatic extrusion and replacement of autoclaved diaphyseal segment of radius: a case report.
A 17-year-old patient had a traumatic extrusion of 10 cm distal radial segment. The segment of bone was replaced after cleaning and autoclaving. At four years follow-up, there was complete incorporation with almost full functional recovery. We report this case for its rarity and successful result.
