Immediate Weight Bearing as Tolerated Is Safe Following Intramedullary Fixation of Extra-articular Metaphyseal Proximal Tibia Fractures (OTA/AO 41-A)

Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma | 2023 | Zachary L. Telgheder, Brenton Hill, Kevin Huang, David T. Watson

Objectives: To determine whether immediate weight bearing after intramedullary fixation of extra-articular proximal tibia fractures (OTA/AO 41A) results in change of alignment before union. Design: Retrospective Review. Setting: Level I and Level II Trauma Center. Patients/Participants: Thirty-seven patients with 37 proximal tibial fractures, all whom could bear weight as toler...

Proximal tibia and tibial plateau nail-plate combinations: technical trick and case series

OTA International: The Open Access Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma | 2022 | Yelena Bogdan, Nicket Dedhia

Abstract Proximal tibia fractures and combined tibial shaft-plateau injuries are increasingly common. Prolonged nonweightbearing may result in poor outcomes, particularly in elderly patients. Nail–plate combination constructs offer an attractive solution to facilitate early weight-bearing in these complex problems. We describe strategies and tips for these constructs and presen...
