The aim of the study was to compare the outcomes of bone transport in treating upper- middle vs. lower- middle tibial bone defects. Sixty-two patients with tibial infected large segmental defects treated by bone transport were analyzed retrospectively and divided into distal group (lower- middle tibial bone defects and proximal transport, n=38) and proximal group (upper- middle tibial bone defects and distal transport, n=24).

Objective: To describe the characteristics of short arm deformity in patients with achondroplasia, and summarize the progress of its lenthening and reconstruction, so as to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
Methods: The literature on the lenthening of upper limb with achondroplastic short arm deformity at home and abroad in recent years was reviewed, and the characteristics, extension methods, postoperative management, effectiveness evaluation, and related complications of short arm deformity were summarized.
Results: Achondroplastic short arm deformity affect the patient's daily perineal hygiene activities.

Distraction osteogenesis is a valuable clinical technique used to address length discrepancies in long bone deformities. This procedure involves performing an osteotomy at an appropriate site in the bone and correcting the deformity through an extension system. This research aims to investigate the efficacy of a newly developed device for use in rat tibias and to provide an alternative to existing devices used in animal experiments.
