BACKGROUND: Restoration of significant anatomical and functional bone defects is one of the most urgent problems of reconstructive surgery in children. Various options for plastic surgery of bone defects are considered. However, some publications present both positive and negative aspects of using vascularized bone autotransplants.

AIM: This study aimed to conduct a systematic analysis of foreign literature data on the use of blood-supplied fibular grafts with a functioning growth zone.

MATERIAL AND METHODS: A systematic literature search was performed in the PubMed information data base and Google Scholar from 1988 to February 7, 2021. Based on the criteria for the selection of literature sources, 21 literary sources were identified. In the analysis, special attention was paid to the age of patients at the time of reconstructive surgery, type of vascularized bone graft used with vessels that are part of the feeding leg, follow-up period, complications in the area of the surgical intervention, as well as the functional result and functioning of the graft growth zone.

RESULTS: In this study, 21 articles comprised the sample, of which 14 were descriptions of clinical observation and seven were descriptions of clinical series. These publications include information on the follow-up of 54 patients with an average age of 6.86 years (min–max, 1–15 years). The average duration of postoperative follow-up was 56 months (min–max, 6–22 years). Indications for surgical interventions were extensive bone defects formed as a result of the tumor process (n = 44), trauma (n = 4), infectious process (n = 1), and birth defects (n = 5).

CONCLUSIONS: In pediatric orthopedics, bone-vascularized fibular grafts with a functioning growth zone are used for the reconstruction of extensive bone defects in complex clinical situations if standard bone auto-/alloplasties are impossible. According to the literature, this technique allows us to achieve satisfactory functional results in most cases. Despite the positive functional results, postoperative complications are quite common in patients.

Обоснование. Восстановление значимых анатомо-функциональных дефектов костей является одной из актуальных проблем реконструктивной хирургии детского возраста. В литературе рассмотрены различные варианты пластики дефектов костной ткани. При этом публикации носят крайне противоречивый характер и отражают как положительные, так и отрицательные стороны применения васкуляризованных костных аутотрансплантатов.

Цель — провести систематический анализ зарубежных литературных источников, посвященных применению кровоснабжаемых трансплантатов из малоберцовой кости с функционирующей зоной роста.

Материалы и методы. Систематический поиск литературы выполнен в информационной базе Pubmed, Google scholar (дата последнего запроса — 7 февраля 2021 г.) без ограничения глубины ретроспекции. На основании критериев запроса отобран 21 источник литературы. При анализе публикаций оценивали возраст пациентов на момент проведения реконструктивного вмешательства, тип применяемого васкуляризованного трансплантата малоберцовой кости, сроки наблюдения, осложнения хирургического вмешательства, функциональный результат и функционирование зоны роста трансплантата.

Результаты. Для анализа отобрана 21 статья, в том числе 14 описаний клинических наблюдений и 7 описаний клинической серии. Данные публикации включают информацию по наблюдению за 54 пациентами, средний возраст которых составил 6,9 года (от 1 года до 15 лет). Средний срок послеоперационного наблюдения — 56 мес. (от 6 мес. до 22 лет). Показанием для хирургических вмешательств были обширные костные дефекты, сформировавшиеся в результате опухолевого процесса (n = 44), травмы (n = 4), инфекционного процесса (n = 1) и при врожденных пороках (n = 5).

Заключение. В детской ортопедии костные васкуляризованные трансплантаты из малоберцовой кости с функционирующей зоной роста применяют для реконструкции обширных костных дефектов в сложных клинических ситуациях, когда прибегнуть к стандартной костной ауто/аллопластике невозможно. Методика, по данным литературы, позволяет достичь удовлетворительных функциональных результатов в большинстве случаев, несмотря на осложнения, которые встречаются в 25,92 % случаев.
