The fracture of a bone is defined as the solution of continuity of a certain bone portion, diaphyseal fractures represent 3 to 5% of all fractures, with the tibial bone being the most affected 24%, due to its scarce vascularity, little protection and the existence of various factors make complications such as pseudoarthrosis and osteomyelitis common, complicating treatment. Objective: To demonstrate the efficacy and obtaining of functional clinical results with the surgical cure of infected pseudoarthrosis of the tibial shaft with contribution of heterologous cadaveric bone graft, and cortical cancellous autograft of iliac crest. Case report: We report the case of a 42-year-old male patient admitted with a diagnosis of post-traumatic II ° exposed fracture, external fixation is performed on 2 occasions, with an interval of 6 days for valgus correction, the patient is absent from his controls, he was readmitted after approximately 10 months due to a diagnosis of infected atrophic pseudoarthrosis of the left tibia, anatomical classification of Cierny-Mader IV, he was hospitalized for surgical treatment in addition to reconstruction with bone allograft and iliac crest autograft, producing consolidation and favorable controls, Currently, the patient has recovered the functionality of his left leg, leaving a fistula with exposure of the allograft as a sequel. Conclusions: surgical treatment of infected tibial shaft pseudoarthrosis with contribution of heterologous cadaveric bone graft, and cortical spongy autograft of iliac crest presents good clinical and functional results, constituting an effective method.
