Summary
Sixteen patients, aged between 6 and 29 years, underwent en bloc resection for bone tumour or tumour like conditions, supplemented by a fresh fibular autograft. The patients were observed for between 3 and 9 years showing considerable regeneration ability in the grafted fibula.
Résumé
Seize malades, âgés de 6 à 29 ans, ont subi une résection pour tumeur osseuse qui a été remplacée d'emblée par une autogreffe de péroné. Le recul des observations est compris entre 3 et 9 ans. Les auteurs présentent des clichés radiographiques qui témoignent de la capacité remarquable de régénération de l'os réséqué à partir de la greffe péronière.
