Abstract

A 12-year-old presented with a grade 3B open tibial fracture, bone loss, and a pulseless left lower extremity after he was struck by a car while riding his all-terrain vehicle (ATV). Multiple irrigation and debridements were done and a monolateral external fixator was applied. This was eventually converted to a circular fixator for bone transport, and his tibia healed with a leg-length discrepancy, which was treated with magnetically controlled lengthening at skeletal maturity.
