| Abstract | Background Chronic hematogenous osteomyelitis often results from the improper treatment of acute hematogenous osteomyelitis. At present, there is lack of uniform standards for the treatment, and the clinical features of the disease are unclear. The purpose of this study was to explore the clinical efficacy and complications of chronic hematogenous tibia osteomyelitis treated with the induced membrane technique. Methods A retrospective analysis of the chronic hematogenous tibia osteomyelitis patients in our department admitted from January 2013 to February 2014 and treated with the induced membrane two-stage surgical technique was performed. The defects were filled with antibiotic-loaded polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) cement after radical debridement, and bone grafts were implanted to repair the defects after 6 to 8 weeks. Results A total of 15 cases were admitted in this study, including 13 men and 2 women with a mean age of 34 years (6 to 51). The mean duration of bone infection was 142 months (3 to 361). All patients were cured with an average follow-up of 25 months (24 to 28). Radiographic bone union occurred in 5.3 months (3 to 8), and full weight bearing occurred in 6.7 months (4 to 10). No recurrence of infection was noted at the last follow-up. Two cases required repeated debridement before grafting due to recurrent infection. One patient had a small bone diameter due to insufficient grafting, and one patient had limitation of knee activity. Conclusions The induced membrane technique for the treatment of chronic hematogenous tibia osteomyelitis is an effective and reliable method. Thorough debridement and wound closure at the first stage is essential for infection control as well as sufficient grafting at the second stage to ensure bone union. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
