https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Sunitinib-Malate-(Sutent).html The use of free flaps from the medial femoral condyle has grown in popularity and is now a workhorse in the reconstruction of skeletal defects. The utility of this technique has not yet been described for the pediatric patient population. The authors present their series of pediatric patients who underwent surgery using a medial femoral condyle free flap or a variant thereof in skeletal reconstruction and demonstrate the efficacy of this technique in this population. A multi-institutional retrospective review of patients aged 18 years or younger who required a medial femoral condyle flap for skeletal reconstruction was undertaken. Operative technique, radiographs, and clinical outcomes were recorded. A novel technique (Innocenti) was used to avoid the distal femoral physis in which a Kirschner wire was placed under fluoroscopic guidance just proximal to the growth plate. Thirteen patients met inclusion criteria, with an average age of 14.7 years (range, 7 to 18 years) and mean follow-up of 28 months (range, 3 to 120 months). Six were skeletally immature at the time of medial femoral condyle harvest, with the last patient having organic bone disease, putting her at risk for pathologic fracture. All 13 patients achieved bony union, and no patients suffered pathologic fractures or physeal injuries; no patients developed length discrepancies. The authors present the first series of corticocancellous medial femoral condyle free flaps in the pediatric population along with a novel technique to avoid injury to the physis in skeletally immature patients. This technique is effective for a variety of skeletal defects or nonunions and is safe for growing patients without causing physeal arrest or growth disturbance. Therapeutic, IV. Therapeutic, IV. The "accuracy" of virtual surgical planning across multiple procedure types is not known. The authors aimed to compare the planned outcome from virtual surgical pl
