    As hand and upper extremity outreach trips increase, guidelines for assessing quality of care are being established. The Global Quality in Upper Extremity Surgery and Training investigators have published validated quality measures deemed to be essential for outreach trips to low and middle-income countries (LMICs). The purpose of this study was to assess baseline implementation of these quality measures across nine international hand surgery outreach sites to LMICs. Additionally, we investigated barriers and facilitators to implementing quality measures and documentation of their implementation.

    Vascularized bone grafting (VBG) has been described as the technique of choice for larger bone defects in bone reconstruction, yielding excellent results at the traditional threshold of 6 cm as described in the literature. However, we hypothesize that the 2-stage Masquelet technique provides equivalent union rates for upper-extremity bone defects regardless of size, while having no increase in the rate of patient complications.
