Abstract
It is still debatable how to treat displaced distal tibial fractures. High complication rates are a common burden for the various internal fixation procedures. In order to avoid a phased process, minimally invasive treatments using ring fixators have been established. These techniques allow for fast stabilization and reduction. This prospective study’s objective was to evaluate the clinical and radiological results of the Ilizarov procedure in patients with distal metaphyseal tibial fractures who either had or did not have intra‐articular involvement. To evaluate the clinical and radiological parameters in the management of distal tibia fracture by locking plate with (minimally invasive percutaneous osteosynthesis) MIPO technique and Ilizarov Ring Fixator It was an Institution based prospective observation study, Department of Orthopaedics from 18 month from March‐June 2022‐2023 at Narayan Hospital Firozabad 30 patients were included in this study. 17 patients (57%) had right distal tibia fractures. 13 patients (43%) had fractures of the left distal tibia. Right leg fractures are slightly more frequent in patients with 23 (77%) of patients suffering injuries in auto accidents 6 (20%) from falls and one from assault. The most frequent cause of injuries is RTA and only two of the 28 patients who had stable ankle joints did so. p‐value for our study is 0.483. Right distal tibia fractures were slightly more prevalent than left‐sided fractures. Road traffic accidents (RTAs) emerged as the primary cause of distal tibial fractures, emphasizing the urgent need for road safety initiatives and improved infrastructure to mitigate RTA‐related injuries Soft tissue injuries were common with grade 2 injuries observed in half of the patients. Managing these injuries effectively is essential to minimize complications and facilitate optimal recovery.
