Modern methods of transosseous osteosynthesis, developed in RSC RTO, are used for treatment of patients, suffered from chronic osteomyelitis. These methods allow our doctors to achieve persistent elimination of chronic purulent process with simultaneous fusion of fractures and false joints, replacement of osteomyelitic cavities and bone defects, elimination of shortening and deformities. By now we accumulated the unique experience of treatment of more than 4000 patients.
