 A) Complex open tibia fracture with segmental bone loss. B), C) A circular small-wire external fixator facilitates stabilization and eventual bone transport through a proximal tibial corticotomy. Following distal docking, this region underwent a small bone graft to facilitate consolidation in this region. D) After frame removal, the segmental deficit has been bridged and leg length discrepancy resolved.
