Appraisal of Clinical and Radiological Outcome of Management of Distal Tibia Fractures With Distal Tibia Locking Plate (DTLP)

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 5

Abstract

Distal tibial fracture is one of the commonest fracture following accidents in over 15% of total fracture cases.The triumph key in managing these niggling fractures is to proficiently preserve, reconstruct the soft tissues, acceptable reduction & early mobilization.AO/OTA classification system is used now a days to classify these fractures.The concept of "biological osteosynthesis", a terminology introduced to designate a new & novel type of osteosynthesis leading to a sufficiently stable fixation of bone fragments allowing early mobilization, and that too without major disturbance of the vascular supply.The advantages of distal tibiallocking plates (DTLP) apply most directly to highly comminuted fractures, unstable metadiaphyseal segments, and osteoporotic fractures.
