Clinical, Functional and Radiological Results of Suprapatellar Nailing in Proximal Tibia Fractures: Case Series

Introduction:•Proximal tibial and segmental fractures may pose technical difficulties when attempting to obtain reduction and alignment using a standard infrapatellar approach with the knee in a flexed position and there is an increased risk of a varus malunion and procarvatum in proximal tibia fractures, when a lateral parapatellar portal is used.Mean affected side arc of motion was 8.18-86.81 .Mean normal side arc of motion was 0-133.6• After 1 month of operation, mean VAS was 0.54.Mean Lysholm pain component was 20.Mean Lysholm knee score was 63.5.Mean affected side arc of motion was 5-115 .Mean normal side arc of motion was 0-133.
