Minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis in distal tibial fractures: pitfalls and surgical guidelines.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Distal and tibial pilon fractures often are difficult to treat due to soft-tissue damage from high-energy trauma. Classical surgical treatment may produce additional trauma, eg, periosteal stripping and microcirculatory damage, which frequently induce infection, nonunion, or both. This article presents minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis as a treatment method for these types of fractures. Minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis involves 1) respecting the soft tissue via

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...
متن کاملComparative study of intramedullary interlocking nailing and minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) in extra articular distal tibial fracture
Introduction: Tibia is one of the most commonly fractured long bone of the body. Distal tibia fractures are primarily located within a square based on the width of the distal tibia. Treatment of distal tibia fracture is challenging because of its unique anatomical characteristics of subcutaneous location with precarious blood supply and proximity to the ankle joint. Minimally invasive plate ost...
متن کاملTherapeutic effects of early and delayed minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis surgery on distal tibial metaphyseal comminuted fracture
This study aims to investigate the effect of early and delayed injury minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis on the treatment of distal tibial metaphyseal comminuted fracture. This study involved 90 patients with distal tibial metaphyseal comminuted fractures for treatment of minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis between February 2012 and October 2014 in our hospita...
متن کاملEarly Results of Minimally Invasive Percutaneous Plate Osteosynthesis for Fractures of the Distal Tibia: A Retrospective Case Series and Review of the Literature
Minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis was developed on the concept that preservation of the soft tissue envelope during surgical management of distal tibial fractures is of paramount importance. We report on our early experience using this technique over a 1-year period with 14 such injuries that were treated by a locking compression plate via minimally invasive surgery. The surg...
متن کاملMinimally invasive osteosynthesis of distal tibial fractures using anterolateral locking plate: Evaluation of results and complications
PURPOSE Soft tissue healing is of paramount importance in distal tibial fractures for a successful outcome. There is an increasing trend of using anterolateral plate due to an adequate soft tissue cover on ante- rolateral distal tibia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the results and complications of minimally invasive anterolateral locking plate in distal tibial fractures. METHODS This ...
