Abstract

Distraction osteogenesis is production of new bone between vascular bone surfaces created by an osteotomy and separated by gradual distraction. The prerequisite for good bone regeneration is a stable fixation usually by means of a circular external fixator or a monorail system, It is use for bone lengthening, deformity correction and filling the bone gap by a process called bone transport. Recent development includes the hexapod system which use computer software for planning and generate prescription for patients management and intramedullary lengthening device which use magnet or electrical stimulation.
