We present a case of a 49-year-old patient who initially presented in May 2020 with an open pilon fracture. Managed with initial debridement, fixation and flap - who subsequently underwent circular frame application for failure of fixation, requiring a transport to fusion frame who developed beta-haemolytic streptococcus A within the site of the proximal corticotomy. A systematic review of the literature was conducted searching EMBASE, MEDLINE and Cochrane library for all articles discussing infected bone regenerate- a paucity of information was found. Abstracts were independently reviewed by 2 authors (LH and LT). In total, there were 16 papers, and then subsequently analysed we identified two case reports regarding infected regenerate.Introduction
