Comparison of Three Surgical Options for Treatment of Diaphyseal Tibia Fractures in Pediatric Patients by Sang Won Lee, MSc, Blair Stewig, BSc, Danielle Cook, MA, Kristin Alves, MD, MPH, Akossiwa Brynn Assignon, MA, Daniel Hedequist, MD, Mininder S. Kocher, MD, MPH, Benjamin J. Shore, MD, MPH, FRCSC, Susan T. Mahan, MD, MPH

“…Key Concepts: (1) There is no clear consensus about optimal implant, including plate osteosynthesis (PO), elastic intramedullary nailing (EIN), and multiplanar external fixation (MEF), for the surgical treatment of skeletally immature tibial shaft fractures. (2) Among 82 patients with pediatric tibial diaphysis fractures, most patients received EIN (61%; 50/82), while 23% (19/82) had MEF, and 16% (13/82) had PO with no difference across treatment groups in terms of open (P = .96) or comminuted (P = .19) fractures. (3) Location of fracture was significantly different by treatment method, with middle 1/3 fractures treated mostly by EIN (77%; 34/44) and distal 1/3 fractures treated across all three fixation methods (P = .002). (4) Patients treated with EIN (22%; 11/50) had a lower complication rate compared with those treated with MEF (47%; 9/19) and PO (46%; 6/13). …”
