Dear Magdy,
Sounds ideal for an Ilizarov transport system.

If technical expertise is available, microvascular fibular transfer wound be a much shorter and sweeter answer for this problem than and Ilizarov method of treatment.

Yes of course. But, dont you think that fibular graft is too thick for femur? Or you mean double free fibula? Thanks.

dear MAGDY we have treated exactly similar case intially with debridement & ILIZAROV ring fixator by end of three months patient had exuberent callus along whole length of left out periosteal sleeve &fixator was removed walking spica was applied, unfortunately after one month in spica he developed break in the bridging bone and now we have treated him with locking plate &bone graft one month back and on CPM machine with knee movement of 90 deg.

In My hands-Ilizarov will be the best, Soft tissue state is important

There are 3 main options:
1 Ilizarov bone transport
2 Vascular fibular graft+plating
3 Diaphyseal endoprosthesis - see photo (dangerous in soft tissue loss and infection)

Magdy,
Similar case.
They do well with bone transport.
I do an acute or accelerated shortening to reduce the gap as much as proximal, and distract proximally to restore length.
In this particular case, notice the change of fixator - orthofix type of unilateral fixator worked well initially but did not allow me to compress beyond a point, which is when I changed to an ilizarov for further compression at the gap/nonunion site.

I have done both for this problem and I feel Ilizarov bone trnapsort is the
best[ probably only ]answer. Vasc fib graft in the femur especially in this
regeon has a problem ie; inadequate fixation distal fragment and long period
to hypertrophy.
With Ilizarov you need a mid shaft corticotomy and trnasport. The frame
needs to extended down to the tibia with hinges across the knee
