“…The increase in articular angulation of 6°in seven patients (28%) revealed in this study appeared not to play an important clinical role, as the overall range of motion averaged 105°and was compatible with other reported outcomes [4,12,14].…”

“…Currently, minimally invasive techniques are gaining favour between orthopaedic surgeons, and there have been reports of patients who suffered tibia plateau fractures being treated exclusively by this technique [4,5,9,[11][12][13][14]. The LISS system consists of a pre-contoured, anatomically shaped plate that can be inserted with a minimally invasive technique and of screws that can be locked within the plate.…”

“…A review of the reported complications that have been published up to now in 139 tibia fractures treated with LISS include: deep or superficial infection; non-union; loss of fixation; screw malposition; peroneal palsy; hardware problems; malalignment; soft-tissue irritation; and removal difficulties [4,6,12,14]. However, all these reported complications concern a limited number of patients.…”

Thirty-six tibial plateau fractures in 35 patients were treated with the less invasive stabilisation system (LISS). Patients' mean age was 42 years. There were 27 type C fractures and nine type B fractures according to AO/ OTA classification. The average time to healing was 4.2 months (3-7 months). Deep infection developed in two cases. One patient healed in 6°of varus, and seven patients had an increased articular angulation of 6°(4-8°) in the sagittal plane. There were no cases of loss of reduction, non-union, or deep vein thrombosis. The LISS system could be considered for the management of tibial plateau fractures.

“…But it was not introduced by Synthes until 1990, and its early clinical result was reported around 2000. [19][20][21] Some of the cases fixed with plates included in the previous systematic review at that time didn't adopt this technique, while in the current systematic review, all the plate fixations were performed using LISS system. Meanwhile, techniques for IMN fixation of proximal tibial fractures at that time were far less developed.…”

Nailing Versus Plating in the Management of Proximal Extra-Articular Tibial Fractures: A Systematic Review

Background: Problem both intramedullary nailing (IMN) and plating have pearls and pitfalls in treating proximal tibial extra-articular fractures. The current study sought to provide clinical evidence for comparison of the two methods in treating such injury. Methods:A systematic search for articles published from January, 1990 to September, 2016, using PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane library was conducted. Clinical researches comparing the outcomes of nailing and plating for proximal extra-articular tibial fractures, on human subjects over 18 years old were included. No limit of language and publication status was applied. The quality of the included randomized controlled studies was analyzed with Cochrane Collaboration Risk of Bias Tool. And the non-randomized studies were assessed using the Risk of Bias Assessment Tool for Non-Randomized Studies (RoBANS). Results:Out of 299 preliminary search results, one randomized controlled trial and one retrospective cohort study were included in the current systematic review of 100 cases (44 in the RCT and 56 in the retrospective study, 41 IMN cases and 59 plate cases). Interpretation:The meta-analysis of the current study found similar union rate, mal-union rate and infection rate for IMN and plate. IMN was more patient satisfactory, but at the same time, more technically requiring. However, the final conclusion that IMN and plate had the same outcome in treating proximal tibial extra-articular fractures should still be made with caution, because of the relatively small sample size of this systematic review.

“…18,45 Proximal tibia fractures (AO/OTA type A or C) are addressed by five Level IV case series studies. 4,9,37,40,44 A single Level IV case series study 8 was excluded because it was updated by a more recent article 9 that is included in this Overview.…”
