Epidemiology A review of the literature suggests that tibial diaphyseal fractures are declining in incidence in the developed world. Weiss et al1 have shown that the incidence of tibial diaphyseal fractures in Sweden declined from 18.7/105/year in 1998 to 16.1/105/year in 2004. They also found that 48% of fractures were caused by a fall from a standing height, compared with 21% of fractures whi...

متن کاملOutcome of Diaphyseal Fracture of Tibia Treated with Flexible Intramedullary Nailing in Pediatrics Age Group; A Prospective Study
Fracture of Tibia is the most common amongst pediatric fractures. Most tibial shaft fractures are treated conservatively with close reduction and above knee cast application. Surgery is indicated only when the fracture is unstable, open fracture and associated with multiple injuries. Flexible intramedullary nailing is commonly used for diaphyseal tibial fracture and is also well used in other l...
متن کاملTibial Tuberosity Avulsion Fracture and Open Proximal Tibial Fracture in an Adult
A displaced tibial tuberosity avulsion fracture associated with an open extra-articular proximal tibial diaphyseal fracture is an uncommon fracture pattern. This case report describes the successful management of such a fracture pattern in a 45-year old male using an open reduction and lag screw fixation of the tuberosity with a minimally invasive reduction and plate fixation of the proximal ti...
