“…The less invasive plating technique has been developed in an effort to reduce the incidence of surgical complications caused by iatrogenic soft tissue injury and damage to the vascularity of the bone. The less invasive technique offers low risk of nonunion, delayed union, or soft tissue problems [15,18,20,26] by reducing iatrogenic damage to the surrounding soft tissues during the surgery. In this study, we observed few soft tissue-related complications such as union-related problems (0%), deep infection (0%), and other soft tissue complications (2%).…”
