摘要: We hypothesized that less malalignment and complications occur with intramedullary nailing of distal third tibia fractures (42A, B, C) after the implementation orthopedic trauma surgeons to this level II community hospital. also patients 5 degrees angulation in at least one direction. Five (13%) these displayed more than direction, 3 exhibited >10 angulation. In Group (trauma) 1 (5%) patient had >5 any plane (P < .05). No differences were noted time union, nonunion, delayed hardware failure or infections between two groups. Functional outcomes assessed using MODEMS lower limb module. comparison without significant angulation, P value for bodily pain was 0.042. Patients treated by a higher incidence malalignment, as compared those specialists.
