Multivariate analysis for the risk of complication and graft survival
| Factor | Relative risk (95% CI) | p value | ||
| Event | ||||
| Resection length (≥ 15 cm) | 1.80 (1.29-2.52) | < 0.01 | ||
| Graft survival | ||||
| Resection length (≥ 15 cm) | 2.53 (1.41-4.54) | < 0.01 | ||
| Composite | 2.30 (1.30-4.10) | < 0.01 | ||
| Extracorporealb | 3.12 (1.13-8.98) | 0.03 | ||
aComposite means an osteoarticular autograft with a total joint replacement.
bExtracorporeal is the procedure of devitalizing comparison to the pedicle technique (only available in freezing).
