MIPPO technology combined with locking compression plate internal fixation for treatment of proximal tibial comminuted fracture: report of 25 cases

Objective: To investigate the effect of MIPPO technology combined with locking compression plate (LCP) fixation in treatment of proximal tibial comminuted fracture.Methods: Twenty-five patients with comminuted fracture of the proximal tibial were managed by MIPPO technology combined with LCP internal fixation.Results: Primary healing of the incision and the fracture was achieved in all the 25 cases.No delayed union or nonunion occurred.The knee-ankle-joint function of the limbs recovered well.Conclusions: MIPPO technology combined with LCP fixation tends to become the best choice for treatment of proximal tibial comminuted fractures.
