The purpose of this study was to assess the treatment of congenital pseudarthrosis of tibia by free vascularized fibula transfer. Cases: This study was performed on 11 cases (Mean age=4.5 years) with congenital pseudarthrosis of tibia who referred to Hazrat Fatemeh, Akhtar and Mostafa Khomeini hospitals in Tehran during 10 years.

Anti-coagulant agent was administered to patients for one week to prevent thrombosis after surgery. All patients were followed up and no failure of therapy was found.
