OBJECTIVES To evaluate the outcomes in patients treated for humerus distal third fractures with MIPO technique and visualization of the radial nerve by an accessory approach, in those without radial palsy before surgery. METHODS The patients were treated with MIPO technique. The visualization and isolation of the radial nerve was done by an approach between the brachialis and the brachiorradi...

Background: Distal tibial fractures are a common injury, often caused by high-energy trauma, and can result in significant morbidity. Traditional surgical management with open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) is associated complications including infection soft tissue injury. Minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) has emerged as potential alternative, advantages less injury faster ret...

Background This study aims to compare the surgical outcomes of open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) and minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) using a screw compression method in simple humeral shaft fractures. Methods This retrospective study was performed with 50 patients who had surgical interventions for the treatment of simple humeral shaft fractures and had follow-ups of ...

Aim: Our study’s aim was to investigate the effectiveness of minimal invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) and intramedullary nailing (IMN) in extraarticular distal tibia fractures compare outcomes these two treatment methods.
 Materials Methods: Between January 2008 2015, 59 patients had fracture treated with MIPO or IMN were evaluated retrospectively. Postoperative x-rays for consolidatio...

<p class="abstract"><strong>Background:</strong> The fractures around distal tibia are challenging injuries due to limited soft tissue coverage, precarious blood supply and subcutaneous nature of the tibia. Minimal invasive plating for fracture is a very good option treatment, as this does not disrupt cause little insult tissue.</p><p class="abstract"><strong&gt...
