Introduction: Intramedullary nailing (IMN) of high tibia fracture has some mechanical and biological advantages over the other form of fixation. However, valgus, apex anterior malalignment and anterior displacement of proximal fragment commonly occur after isolated IMN fixation of proximal high tibia fracture. The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of using 3.5-mm locking c...

Background: To compare the union times of the uncomplicated tibial shaft fractures, which were distally locked by twocoronal and one sagittal screws and by only two coronal screws.Methods: 45 patients with tibial shaft treated with intramedullary nailing included in this study. 23 of 45 fractureswere treated with uniplanar two distal interlocking (Group 1) and 22 fractures were treated with bip...

OBJECTIVES To define pQCT precision errors, least-significant-changes, and identify associated factors for bone outcomes at the radius and tibia in children. METHODS We obtained duplicate radius and tibia pQCT scans from 35 children (8-14yrs). We report root-mean-squared coefficient of variation (CV%RMS) and 95% limits-of-agreement to characterize repeatability across scan quality and least-s...

In this study of fractures of the shaft of the tibia and femur in children, the growth rate of these long bones after injury was assessed by serial radiographical measurements of bone length, accurate to the nearest millimetre. Within three months of injury the rate of growth was at its maximum and was 38 per cent in excess of normal. The rate then decreased but remained significantly raised fo...

Background/Aim: Wound management of the compound open tibia (Gustilo-Anderson grade 2, 3a, 3b) is complicated by a higher infection and problem adequate soft tissue coverage significant. Primary wound closure not easily advisable in these types tibial fractures. Early flap or graft procedure might increase complication rate due to temporary rejection infections. The aim this study was analyse d...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE:Tibial shaft fracture treatment with intermedullary nailing is very common these days. In the current study, our objective was to determine percentage of patients anterior knee pain following tibial interlocking nailing.
 METHODOLOGY:Our research design a Descriptive cross-sectional study. The study duration approximately one year (03-3-2020 3-3-2021). conducted ...

Both medial and anterolateral plate applications have been described for the treatment of distal tibia fractures, each with distinct advantages and disadvantages. The objective of this study was to compare the biomechanical properties of medial and anterolateral plating constructs used to stabilize simulated varus and valgus fracture patterns of the distal tibia. In 16 synthetic tibia models, a...
