Result Of Pre Contoured Distal Tibial Locking Plates In Distal Tibial Fractures By Minimal Invasive Technique
Journal Title: International Journal of Orthopaedics Traumatology & Surgical Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Distal diametaphyseal tibia fractures poses a challenge for orthopaedic surgeons to treat these fractures. Most of the distal tibial fractures are not suitable for intramedullary nailing and usually require open reduction and fixation with plating. Treatment of these injuries using minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) techniques may minimise soft tissue injury and damage to the vascular integrity of the fracture fragments which gets disturbed with open reduction. Twenty patients with closed distal diametaphyseal tibial fractures are treated with MIPO technique with pre contoured distal tibial locking plates to assess the results.
