“A Prospective Study of Surgical Management of Distal Tibia Fracture with Anterolateral Locking Compression Plate”
European Journal of Molecular & Clinical Medicine,

Abstract
Distal tibia fractures remain one of the most substantial therapeuticchallenges that confrontthe orthopaedic surgeon. Numerous features are responsible for this, but perhaps none are as
difficult as the accompanying soft tissue injury that is frequently present.
Despite the advances in the identification, understanding, and treatment of the concomitant
soft tissue injury, the liberal use of computed tomographic (CT) scanning, advances in
implant design including locking plate technology, and minimally invasive application
techniques, satisfactory outcomes for the management of these challenging fractures remains
elusive.
