Minimally invasive internal fixation of distal tibia fractures with a nonconventional implant:

Fractures of the distal end of the tibia without joint involvement are usually the result of high-energy trauma. Local anatomic conditions lead to high rates of infection, delayed consolidation, and exposure of fixation hardware. In this setting, minimally invasive techniques are indicated to mitiga...
