Acute traumatic fibular bowing associated with tibial fractures
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research
|January 1, 1984
Abstract:
Acute traumatic fibular bowing associated with angular fracture of the tibia was observed in three young adults. The fibular bowing may have had a negative effect on the healing of the tibial fracture by transmitting tension through the interosseous membrane, thereby preventing proper reduction of the tibial fracture fragments and delaying the union.
