The use of the Garamycin sponge in the treatment of infected pseudoarthrosis of the tibia has been presented. The study included 6 male patients aged from 27 to 56 years; the sponge filled the defect after resection of the pseudoarthrosis. The method seems to be the one of choice to support adequate surgical intervention grossly contributing to the final positive result.
