[The retrograde tibial nail in proximal tibial fractures--a biomechanical study]
1BG-Kliniken Bergmannsheil, Chirurgische Universitätsklinik und Poliklinik, Bochum.
Abstract:
Operative treatment of proximal tibial fractures required ORIF procedures with plate osteosynthesis. A cephalograde tibial nail provides the same mechanical stability as plate fixation. Closed reduction and soft tissue preservation are the advantages of this new technique.
