Abstract

• Vascularized fibular graft is one of the well accepted methods in the treatment of large bone defect of femoral shaft. But bone fixation with Ender nails through the same incision of bone graft has never been reported. We performed vascularized fibular graft and bone fixation with Ender nails through single medial skin incision and permitted physiologic stress. We achieved early radiologic union and medullary widening and the patient could return to work 9 months after the accident. We would like to report such an experience of treatment with the reference of literature.
• Key words: Bone defect of femoral shaft, Vascularized fibular graft, Ender nail
