Treatments tested in this trial

  • Transverse Bone Transport System

    Device

    This is a prospective, international, multicentre, observational post-market clinical follow-up (PMCF) study. Adult subjects will be treated according to the manufacturer's Instructions for Use, with follow-up extending to 12 months post-device removal. Participating sites include centres in the US, Europe, the UK, and South Africa. Subjects will be followed using a phased framework: T0: Index Surgery (baseline data, operative details, ulcer status) T1: End of Distraction (device parameters, adverse events, ulcer status) T2: End of Compression (similar to T1) T3: Device Removal (confirmation of union, ulcer status) Post-removal visits: F3: 3 months F6: 6 months F12: 12 months
