L-SHAPED CORTICOTOMY WITH BONE FLAP SLIDING IN THE MANAGEMENT OF CHRONIC TIBIAL OSTEOMYELITIS: SURGICAL TECHNIQUE AND CLINICAL RESULTS

L-shaped corticotomy with bone flap sliding in the management of chronic tibial osteomyelitis: surgical technique and clinical results

Abstract Background We described the use of the technique of L-shaped corticotomy with bone flap sliding to treat chronic osteomyelitis of the tibia in eight patients and presented the preliminary results.Methods L-shaped corticotomy with bone flap sliding was performed in eight patients between 2007 and 2014.All patients had chronic tibial osteomy

Impacts of population structure and analytical models in genome-wide association studies of complex traits in forest trees: a case study in Eucalyptus globulus.

The promise of association genetics to identify genes or genomic regions controlling complex traits has generated a flurry of interest.Such phenotype-genotype associations could be useful to accelerate tree breeding cycles, increase precision and selection intensity for late expressing, low heritability traits.However, the prospects of association
