Article Synopsis
- - Congenital pseudoarthrosis is a rare bone disorder primarily affecting the radius, ulna, tibia, and fibula, with a few cases reported in association with conditions like neurofibromatosis and fibrous dysplasia, while acquired cases often follow fractures or infections like tuberculosis.
- - A 3-year-old girl presented with pain and swelling in her right thigh, where an MRI indicated chronic osteomyelitis with non-united fracture, leading to abnormal mobility and cortical resorption.
- - The treatment involved surgical resection of the pseudoarthrosis followed by a two-stage masquelet procedure, which included bone grafting and plate fixation to support healing.
