Abstract
1. In chronic osteomyelitis grafting a cavity with split skin is a reliable method of treatment. The skin cover so obtained is durable. 2. The method may be used with good prospects of success even when the cavity is large and there is extensive disease of bone. 3. Operation is indicated for the relief of pain, to close a sinus or sinuses, to obtain healing of an ulcer or to prevent recurrent episodes of acute infection. 4. The technique of operation employed in eleven cases is described and illustrative case reports are given.
