Intramedullary nailing and plate osteosynthesis for fractures of the distal metaphyseal tibia and fibula.
PURPOSE To assess the results of concurrent intramedullary nailing plus plate osteosynthesis for fractures of the distal tibia and fibula. METHODS 15 men and 10 women (mean age, 35 years) with concurrent fractures of the distal tibia and fibula underwent intramedullary nailing (for the tibia) and plate osteosynthesis (for the fibula). 17 fractures were type A1, 6 type A2, and 2 type A3. Compo...
متن کاملIntramedullary nailing and angulation prevention in distal metaphyseal tibial fractures.
Intramedullary nailing, which is preferred in tibial diaphyseal fractures, is also frequently used in distal third tibial fractures. Various angular deformities, including varus/valgus deformity, may be observed during postintramedullary nailing. Orthopedic surgeons use several methods to prevent this problem.In this study, at least 2 static locking screws were placed proximal and distal to the...
متن کاملUse of Intramedullary Nail in Distal Metaphyseal Fractures of Tibia
Background: The ideal treatment of distal metaphyseal tibia fractures is still controversial. With the development of extremely distal locking multidirectional holes, the application of intramedullary nailing has extended to the treatment of distal metaphyseal tibial fractures. The aim of the study was to evaluate the results of interlocking intramedullary nailing in extra-articular distal meta...
متن کاملMinimally Invasive Plate Osteosynthesis for Distal Tibia Fractures.
Surgical treatment of distal tibia fractures can present as a difficult task. Intramedullary nailing (IMN), external fixation, and open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) have displayed various complications ranging from a high rate of knee morbidity with IMN to wound complications and infection with ORIF. Minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) has been used to decrease development of t...
متن کاملMinimal invasive plate osteosynthesis of close fractures of distal tibia.
BACKGROUND The limited soft tissue, subcutaneous location and poor vascularity render the tibial fractures very challenging. Treatment of distal tibial fractures using minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) technique may minimise damage to soft tissues and the vascular integrity of bony fragments, leaving comminuted fragments out of the mechanical construct, preserving soft tissues with...
