Donor-site complications of autogenous nonvascularized fibula strut graft harvest for anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion surgery: experience with 163 consecutive cases
The Spine Journal, 10/23/09
Nassr A et al. – Although autogenous fibula is an excellent graft for multilevel ACCF reconstruction, surgeons should carefully consider the associated morbidity of fibular harvest before surgery. In this series, most complications were of short duration. However, nine patients with long–term complications required five additional surgical procedures. Therefore, patients who are scheduled to undergo autogenous fibula harvest should be advised about these potential complications.
