    Summary: Consisting of case studies contributed by both domestic and international leaders in the field, this is an invaluable resource for all orthopedic surgeons and researchers and practitioners of limb lengthening, deformity correction and the Ilizarov method. Comprehensive yet accessible, this volume covers injuries to the foot and ankle as well as orthopedic trauma, from foot and ankle fusions and clubfoot correction to femoral and tibial reconstruction. Each of the unique cases includes color photographs and radiographs from before, during and after surgery and will follow a consistent chapter structure which outlines a brief clinical history of the case, preoperative problem list, treatment strategy, basic principles, technical pearls and how to avoid and manage complications and subsequent problems. Suggested readings round out each case. A comprehensive presentation of techniques is featured, including external fixation, internal fixation, combination approaches and fully implantable limb lengthening nails. This case-based approach is an efficient and thorough way to learn this exciting new frontier in orthopedic surgery.

    An 18-year-old male with severe aplastic anemia associated with hepatitis was prepared for bone marrow transplantation with cyclophosphamide (50 mg/kg/day) for 4 consecutive days. He then received 3.47 X 10(8) nucleated bone marrow cells per kilogram of body weight from his HL-A identical sister by intravenous infusion. Although subsequent karyotyping showed that engraftment was not achieved, prompt hematologic recovery ensued by the third week post-transplant. Diffusion chamber culture of the patient's bone marrow stroma, obtained prior to cyclophosphamide therapy, was carried out. A prompt increase in the number of cells in the chambers was observed. A differential cell count of the contents was similar to that seen when normal bone marrow is cultured in a similar manner.
