PURPOSE: Masquelet and Ilizarov techniques have their advantages and shortcomings in the reconstruction of bone defects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the combination of both techniques for the management of infected tibial nonunion to combine the advantages of both techniques with avoidance of shortcomings of both of them. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A prospective single-centre study was performed during the period from 2012 to 2019. Patients with the infected nonunion of the tibia with bone defect were included. Patients with pathological fractures or non-infected bone loss were excluded. Management protocol for all patients consisted of two stages. The first stage was Masquelet induced membrane technique and the second stage was Ilizarov bone transport. The results were assessed based on both objective (clinical and radiographic evaluation) and subjective criteria (limb function and patient satisfaction). RESULTS: Thirty-two patients were included in this study. The mean size of the defect was 6 cm. Ilizarov bone transport was done through the induced membrane chamber in all cases with an average follow-up of 28 months. Successful reconstruction without recurrence of infection was achieved in 30 cases (94%). No other bone or soft tissue procedure was needed with satisfactory functional outcome in 27 out of 30 cases (90%). Three cases had unsatisfactory results due to leg length discrepancy, joint stiffness, and persistent pain. CONCLUSIONS: Masquelet-Ilizarov technique can be used for the management of infected nonunion tibia with high satisfactory results without the need for complex soft tissue procedures.
