tibia fractures and to report the incidence of superficial or deep infection and subsequent …

Introduction The incidence of periprosthetic fractures after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is
increasing, and treatment is becoming more necessary. In periprosthetic tibial fractures, the …

Background Tibial plateau fractures (TPFs) which involve the proximal tibia in its articular
and meta-epiphyseal segments are one of the commonest intra-articular fractures …

Objectives: The goal of this study is to compare the fatigue strength of a locking
intramedullary nail (LN) construct with a double locking plate (DLP) construct in comminuted …

Background: Bicondylar tibial plateau fractures have been treated with either plating or
external fixation techniques, with conflicting results. A recently introduced technique …

Introduction Proximal tibia fractures make up 1% of all fractures in adults. The fractures

Background: Bicondylar tibial plateau fractures present a therapeutic challenge to the
orthopaedic trauma surgeon, both in terms of the osseous injury as well as the concomitant …
