Vascularized fibular grafting in the treatment of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus osteomyelitis and infected nonunion.

abstract：:Bypass grafting around a neuroma-in-continuity entails coapting a nerve graft above and below the injured segment using two sequential end-to-side repairs. The proximal repair is analogous to what has been classically described as an end-to-side repair; the axons from the intact nerve sprout into the end of a recipien...
