| Abstract | The concept of biological osteosynthesis refers basically to the conservation of vascularity of the bone during surgical intervention to ensure the continued vitality of the individual fragments and to achieve improved fracture healing. Intramedullary nailing has become the standard of care for most displaced tibial shaft fractures. However, proximal and distal shaft fractures can be difficult to control with an intramedullary device, increasing the frequency of malalignment. The present study was carried out for evaluation & analysis of the role of minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis in cases of proximal and distal tibial fractures. Total of 30 patients were taken up & after proper pre-operative assessment plating was done and the results were evaluated. On the basis of the finding of this study it was concluded that: MIPO technique preserves most of the osseous vascularity thus providing for a more biological repair. |
