Bridge Plating of Proximal Tibial Metaphyseal Fracture by Limited Open Technique.
Bridge Plating of Proximal Tibial Metaphyseal Fracture by Limited Open Technique. Journal of orthopaedic trauma Pulley, B. R., Gardner, M. J. 2019; 33 Suppl 1: S34–S35Abstract
In this video, we demonstrate application of a bridge plate by limited open technique for fixation of a proximal tibial metaphyseal fracture. Although intramedullary nailing remains our preferred surgical technique for treatment of most extra-articular fractures of the proximal tibia, we find bridge plating by limited open technique to be an important alternative option for select fracture patterns not amenable to intramedullary nailing.
