METHOD OF TREATING CHRONIC OSTEOMYELITIS OF LONG BONES Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC A61B17/56 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: all sclerotic changed endosseous bone tissues are excised outside a sanitised osteomyelitic region from the inside through a sequestral bone defect up to a support cortical layer, wherein the porous structure of bone tissue is formed by forming microperforations from the intramedullary bone cavity throughout the sclerotic changes within the periosteum. All the microperforations and sequestral bone defect in the cortical layer is filled with intraoperatively hardening bactericidal osteogenic bone-plastic material. The left intramedullary bone defect is repaired later at the moment of granulation tissue maturation in the bone wound by introducing the X-ray controlled osteogenic bactericidal bone-plastic material through one of two drain tubes.

EFFECT: method enables improving osteogenic possibilities of the bone-plastic material, reducing the risk of osteonecrosis.
