“…Postoperative reduction of the tibial fracture was considered radiologically satisfactory when the tibial bone fragments were in contact with at least 50% of the fracture margins, with an angulation not exceeding 10 degrees overall and without rotation [14] [15]. We used the following elements to judge consolidation: clinically, the absence of abnormal mobility of the fracture site, indolence on walking and on the anvil test, and radiologically, the demonstration of a jointed callus with disappearance of the fracture line [14] [16]. Joint mobility was considered good, compared to the healthy limb, when the patient was able to walk on the tips of the toes and on the heel.…”
