First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares two surgical procedures for non-healing fractures (nonunion) in long bones like the thigh or shin. One uses the patient's own bone (autograft), the other uses donor bone (allograft). The goal is to see which approach helps people return to work or military duty sooner. The trial plans to enroll 156 adults and is not yet recruiting.
