Hello, Thanks for writing to us,
There can be associated complication with use of osteocrete.
First I will advise to go for bone grafting as chances of graft rejection are less
Next step or associated ILIZAROV fixator can be used.
If these possibilities are done then you can go for osteocrete.
I hope that I have answered your query. Let me know if I can help you further. Take care
