The patient underwent staged nonunion reconstruction with a tricortical iliac crest bone graft and mesh plate. With 18 months of a sustained successful outcome, we propose a treatment strategy for a challenging clinical problem. CONCLUSION: When primary ORIF fails, bone healing and resolution of a painful sternal nonunion can be effectively managed with a tricortical iliac crest in-lay autograft and locking mesh plate.<p> 1 Pain document-rn25468 public
