Advantages of the Ilizarov external fixation in the management of intra-articular fractures of the distal tibiaJ Ortho Surgery and Research
ORIGINAL ARTICLE: Treatment of distal tibial intra-articular fractures is challenging due to the difficulties in achieving anatomical reduction of the articular surface and the instability which may occur due to ligamentous and soft tissue injury. The purpose of this study is to present an algorithm in the application of external fixation in the management of intra-articular fractures of the distal tibia either from axial compression or from torsional forces.
