Abstract
Bifocal treatment of complex periarticular femoral nonunions offers a single solution for dealing with bone loss, nonunion, and instability. The method is safe and reliable but has, as with all methods involving distraction osteogenesis, a significant complication rate. Despite this caution, the patients' outcomes were satisfactory.
