Zusammenfassung:Septic non union has still been a challenge for orthopedic surgeons. Its resolution is complex and has hight morbility. It needs a multidisciplinary approach. Distal tibia is a common location due its poor vascularity and soft tissues. We present a patient with pseudoarthrosis of the tibia treated with resection and bone transport. Contact was achieved at the docking site at 5 months. Bone grafting and freshening of fracture ends was performed. At 12 months the frame was removed after complete consolidation. As the only complication, the patient suffered two episodes of cellulitis that were resolved with antibiotic therapy.
