The bone transport technique uses the principle of distraction-osteogenesis and fill bone defects with the aid of an external fixator. In order to evaluate the clinical effect of femoral internal fixation with Ortho-Bridge System after bone transport, 4 patients after femoral bone transport from October 2020 to October 2022 are studied in this paper. Among them, 3 patients ran refracture of femur after removal of the Limb reconstruction system, 1 patient just finish femoral bone transport and request internal fixation. The surgery results show that Ortho-Bridge System can be used in the situation that conventional Locking compression plate and intramedullary nail are not suitable due to anatomical variation after femoral bone transport. Key words: femoral fracture; Ortho-Bridge System; bone transport; postoperative complications of bone transport.
