A Prospective Study on Functional Outcome of Distal Tibial Fracture Fixation with Locking Compression Plate Using Minimally Invasive Percutaneous Osteosynthesis Technique
Tibia Fractures Distal make up 5‐10% of all fractures in the lower extremities. Because of their intrinsic instability, lack of soft tissue, subcutaneous location and poor bone vascularity, these fractures are still difficult to treat. The use of locking compression plates to treat distal tibia fractures has become more popular recently. Stable plate fixation, preservation of fracture biology and reduction of soft tissue issues are the objectives of this technique...
