Triplane fracture of the proximal tibia: a case report and literature review
Abstract
Triplane fractures of the proximal tibia are less well known than the distal extremity. The diagnosis is based on a good analysis of X-rays and possibly
CT images to better plan the management. The authors reports a triplane fracture of the proximal tibial in a 12 year old boy treated by closed
reduction and internal fixation. To our knowledge, only a dozen cases have been reported in the literature with generally a good evolution of the
fracture.
