Although implantation of crude bone marrow cells has been applied in a small number of patients for fracture healing, transplantation of peripheral blood CD34(+) cells, the hematopoietic/endothelial progenitor cell-enriched population, in patients with fracture has never been reported. Here, we report the first case of tibial nonunion receiving autologous, granulocyte colony stimulating factor mobilized CD34(+) cells accompanied with autologous bone grafting. No serious adverse event occurred, and the novel therapy performed 9 months after the primary operation resulted in bone union 3 months later without any symptoms including pain and gait disturbance.
