Methods: Between March 2011 and October 2014, 52 patients with a mean age of 48 years (16-72 years) sustaining tibial shaft fractures were included. All the patients underwent MIPPO for the fractures using a distraction support prior to insertion of the plate. Fracture angular deformity was assessed by goniometer measurement on preoperative and postoperative images. Results: Preoperative radiographs revealed a mean of 7.6°(1.2°-28°) angulation in coronal plane and a mean of 6.8°(0.5°-19°) angulation in sagittal plane. Postoperative anteroposterior and lateral radio graphs showed a mean of 0.8°(0°-4.0°) and 0.6°00-3.6°) of varusvalgus and apex anterior/posterior angulation, respectively. No intraoperative or postoperative complications were noted. Conclusions: This study suggests that the distraction support during MIPPO of tibial shaft fractures is an effective and safe method with no associated complications.展开更多
