The application of interlocking intramedullary nailing in the treatment of diaphyseal fractures of the tibia

Abstract

In this paper, the role of the reamerized - interlocking intramedullary nailing technique in the treatment of complicated diaphyseal fractures of the tibia, which is been widely used all over the world, has been evaluated. 16 patients who had been accepted to our clinic during October 1993 and February 1995, were classified according to the fracture type and 6 of them were found to be group A of the AO classification, 7 as group B and 3 group C. 6 of the patients were Integument Open fractures while the other 10 were Integument Closed fractures. The etiology was traffic accident in 11 of the cases, and "falling down" in the rest. 15 of the patients were male and the other one was female. The mean age of the patients was 36. The patients were operated by the same team and with the same technique within a mean preoperative hospitalization period of 14 days. The RTN nail designed by the AO group was preferred as the osteosynthesis material. All of the fractures healed within a mean period of 5 months and the results were found to be excellent in 11 of the cases, good in 4 cases, and fair in 1 of the cases, according to the Klemm-Borner Scale. Under the light of this limited experience, this technique, which can control the length and the rotation of the extremity, presents as a reliable alternative with a high union and low complication rate in the treatment of diaphyseal fractures of the tibia by avoiding the necessity of external additional support and permitting early mobilization with weight bearing.
