Figs. 3-A through 3-E Patient 1. Fig. 3-A Compression measurement (in Nm) with a digital dynamometer. Fig. 3-B Initial compression in the process of bone transport has resulted in immediate recovery of the alignment and length of the bone. Fig. 3-C Early rehabilitation, with partial weight-bearing support with a crutch 24 hours after the surgical procedure. Fig. 3-D Eradication of infection and completely healed bone with trabeculae in the DRZ (achieved with 3.2-Nm initial compression) and the DSC (achieved with 3.5-Nm final compression). Fig. 3-E Complete recovery of normal gait and leg shape and length.
