Bone Transport for Limb Preservation: Indications, Technique, and the Patient Experience

In this video interview, a patient who had been told they were out of options for limb salvage describes traveling from New York City to the Boston area to pursue a new limb-sparing procedure not otherwise available to them. The conversation, shared with their treating surgeon, offers a candid look at patient expectations, functional recovery, and the collaborative relationship between physician and patient throughout a complex reconstructive process. A valuable perspective for clinicians managing similarly challenging, no-option limb preservation cases.
