THE RESULT OF THE 108 MILITARY CENTRAL HOSPITAL'S LOCKING PLATE SURGERY FOR A CLOSED INTRAARTICULAR TIBIA FRACTURE
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: Evaluate the results of locking plate surgery for a closed intra-articular fracture of the distal tibia at the 108 Military Central Hospital. Methods: From January 2022 to August 2024, we conducted a prospective clinical study in which we diagnosed and evaluated the results of locking plate surgery for 46 patients who had closed intraarticular fractures of the distal tibia. Results: The results of anatomical correction according to Teeny-Wiss standards revealed that the majority of cases were corrected to the anatomical position with favorable results of 67.0%, an average of 17.4%. The results of bone healing revealed that 100% of the bones were calcified. According to the AOFAS scale, the functional recovery was good to very good with a high rate of 80,4%, fair with a rate of 13%, and there was no long-term follow-up complication. Conclusion: Locking plate surgery for patients with closed intraarticular fracture of the distal tibia showed positive anatomical and functional results.
