Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to examine and confirm the clinical performance of the Fitbone Transport and Lengthening System in adult patients (21 years and older) who require lower-limb lengthening, fracture fixation and/or treatment for previous non-healing fracture. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Are their any unanticipated safety issues with the product when used in a real-world setting? 2. Does the product provide the anticipated clinical benefit when used in a real-world setting? Participants will have been selected by their physician to be treated with the Fitbone Transport and Lengthening System as part of treatment for their condition or injury. All procedures will be according to the physician's standard care practices. There are no study-specific procedures or requirements for participants in this study.
Long bone defect (LBD) is defined as a focalized loss of bone tissue in any long bone of the upper or lower extremity. Long bone defects are a complex problem, that may arise as a complication of many different pathologies, such as trauma, tumors or infection. Whereas post-traumatic defects are the largest group. Reports estimate that there are almost 4 million bone grafting procedures worldwide per year. However, limb reconstruction in the context of a bony defect is challenging and up to date there is little evidence and treatment recommendations. In a multi-national approach, the aim of this project is to set up an international, multicenter registry to gather information and details on prevalence or incidence, current treatments, complications and outcome.
