RE: [ENG][ESP] - Case of Surgeon: Friendship with scalpel. - Caso de Cirujano: Amistad con bisturí.
Hii sir @drmaizo, I am @vinaykumarr, a medico from India. Your post is really informative and I had some doubts regarding the surgery, two years back my friend met with an accident and he had same kind Of fracture in the distal part of radius and even a carpel bone.
I don’t know why bones grafts are taken only from the iliac bone, can you please tell me.
Thank you
Hi @vinaykumarr, a pleasure to greet you friend colleague, I am glad you liked my post and I will gladly answer your question. Actually, we can take bone grafts from various places on the body.
Most of the time we use "iliac crest" because it is a relatively easy and safe technique that offers a greater amount of bone graft than other sites, which is important in a fracture reconstruction surgery.
Greetings :)
I leave you an explanatory image where you have a sample of the large amount of graft that can be obtained.
Thank you sir, for spending your valuable time and answering me.
