Mipo - A Biological Method for Fixation of Complex Fractures of Tibia by Rohan Bhimani in Surgery & Case Studies: Open Access Journal in Lupine Publishers
Management of proximal and distal tibial fractures is challenging
because of the complexity of injury, limited
muscle coverage and poor vacularity. Surgical management of tibial
fractures includes multiple options: external fixation, IM
nailing, ORIF and minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO). Open
reduction and internal fixation with a plate may end in wide
dissection and tissue devascularization. Fixation of tibial fractures
with MIPO allows protection of soft tissue and blood supply. This
is a report of a series of prospectively studied closed proximal and
distal tibial fractures treated with MIPO.
