Nonunions of the tibia represent challenging orthopedic problems, which require the surgeon to analyze numerous factors and choose an appropriate treatment. Tibial nonunion treatment requires establishing its existence and cause. The treatment algorithm necessitates consideration of a wide variety of factors: the location of the nonunion, the presence or absence of infection, and any angular or rotational deformity. Given advances in implant design and biologic agents, a wide variety of management options exist for the treatment of tibial nonunions. This article reviews surgical treatments for tibial nonunions.
