In this series of short educational videos, our expert will discuss surgical approaches and fixation techniques for complex proximal tibial fractures. With a detailed overview of classifications, anatomy, and fracture patterns, the faculty use patient case studies to highlight how different strategies and solutions – including small plating, nailing, and external fixation – can be used to address challenges and complications.
Agenda
• Introduction
• Classification and soft tissue management
• Approach and principles of reduction and fixation
• Alternative fixation strategies
• Q&A
