What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Complete consolidation at 12 months

    The measures will be evaluated on x-rays. Consolidation is considerred achieved when at least 3 out of 4 cortices are fused. Xrays are done on every consultations

    Time frame: assessment of consolidation 12 months after surgical reconstruction, for induced membrane group the first time of surgery is considerred

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 17, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
