Arteriovenous fistula formation after a closed proximal tibial fracture in a child.

Arteriovenous fistula formation after a closed extremity fracture is rare. We present the case of an 11-year-old boy who developed an arteriovenous fistula between the anterior tibial artery and popliteal vein after closed fractures of the proximal tibia and fibula. The fractures were treated by closed reduction and casting. A fistula was diagnosed 12 weeks after the injury. It was treated by e...

Injury to the anterior tibial system during percutaneous plating of a proximal tibial fracture.

Minimally invasive osteosynthesis of proximal tibial fractures has grown in popularity in recent years. This article describes a patient with a Schatzker type VI proximal tibial fracture (AO/OTA type 41.C3) and previous compartment syndrome treated with definitive fixation 8 weeks after initial injury with a precontoured proximal tibial plate and a distal targeting device. Brisk bleeding occurr...

Effectiveness of Minimally Invasive Plate Osteosynthesis (MIPO) on Comminuted Tibial or Femoral Fractures

Background: Comminuted fractures happen frequently due to traumas. Fixation without opening the fracture site,known as minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO), has recently become prevalent. This study has beendesigned to assess the outcomes of this treatment for tibial and femoral comminuted fractures.Methods: A total of 60 patients with comminuted femoral or tibial fractures were opera...

Anterior tibial artery perforator flap for defects around the knee: a case report

Soft tissue reconstruction around the knee joint is usually complex for reconstructive surgeons. Defects in this area are largely caused by trauma, chronic infection, tumor, and surgical infection. In this article, we report a case of using anterior tibial artery perforator flap for reconstructing soft tissue defect around the knee joint. The patient was a 45-year-old male with an open patella ...
