Comparative Study of BiologicalTibialFixation Intramedullary Versus Surface Fixation

Abstract

Comparative study in biological fixation of fractur tibia between Minimal Invasive percutaneous plating osteosynthesis and intramedullary nail.This approach is described as ‘biological internal fixation’. It involves the use of locked internal fixators which have minimal implant-to-bone contact, long-span bridging and fewer screws for fixation. Formerly, internal fixation with a plate aimed at absolute stability to avoid micromovement which could result in loosening of the implant and a delay in healing. The new technique of internal fixation, however, seems to tolerate and even require some degree of mobility of the interface of the fracture. Keywords:Biological- Intramedullary-TARPO-DCS-DVT
