Comparative Analysis of Treatment Outcomes in Patients With Types B and C Pylon Fractures

Abstract: Objective — to develop and implement improved approaches to the diagnosis and tactics of surgical treatment in patients with fractures of the distal tibia metaepiphysis.Material and methods. The study included 126 patients with fractures of distal tibia metaepiphysis of «B» and «C» types who underwent internal fixation with plates in 2005–2012. The authors analyzed surgical treatment outcomes within the period from 2.5 to 9 years (average of 5.7–2.3 years) of postoperative follow up. Average age of patients wa… Show more

“…The problem of managing patients with the consequences of intra-articular injuries of distal tibia and/or fibula remains relevant due to their high prevalence and incidence, frequent poor outcomes and disability [1,2]. This is also caused by the variety of surgical techniques including those joint-preserving (corrective osteotomy of the distal fibula and tibia followed by osteosynthesis, arthroscopic interventions, or distraction arthroplasty) and not jointpreserving (arthrodesis or total arthroplasty) [3,4]. Restrictions on the foot functioning in the late postoperative period depend, among other things, on the type of surgical intervention performed on the patient [5].…”
