Osseous overgrowth in congenital amputations of the upper limb: report of 3 cases treated with autologous stump plasty

Abstract
Osseous overgrowth is an important problem after traumatic or surgical amputations in children. It is rather exceptional in congenital amputations. We report three cases of congenital amputation of the humerus with osseous overgrowth. They were treated with an autologous stump plasty according to Marquardt's technique.
