TRUMATCH Graft Cage for Long Bone Defects

This study is looking at how well the TRUMATCH Graft Cage works for people who have a significant bone defect in their arm (humerus), thigh (femur), or shin (tibia) bone that needs surgery. The study will follow a small group of up to 5 patients who receive the TRUMATCH Graft Cage at UCSD. Researchers will collect information on how well the bone heals, any problems that occur, if more surgeries are needed, how long it takes to get back to normal activities, and pain levels. The goal is to understand the usefulness of the TRUMATCH Graft Cage over two years after surgery. You may be able to join if you are 18 or older, have one of these bone defects, and are being treated at UCSD.
