Abstract
Congenital pseudarthrosis of the lower limb is not uncommon, with an incidence of approximately 1 in 150,000.
In contrast, isolated congenital pseudarthrosis of the fibula without tibial involvement is a very rare. There were only 11 cases of true isolated congenital pseudarthrosis of the fibula described in the English literature till 1999. We describe 3 patients diagnosed and treated in our institution. The current management is also discussed, highlighting the unique treatment options in this rare condition.
The abstracts were prepared by Professor Jegan Krishnan. Correspondence should be addressed to him at the Flinders Medical Centre, Bedford Park 5047, Australia.
