Effective surgical treatment for tibia fractures
Open reduction internal fixation of tibia is a surgical procedure used to treat fractures of the tibia bone. The procedure involves making an incision in the skin over the fractured bone and realigning the broken pieces of bone to their proper position. The surgeon then places metal screws, plates, or rods to hold the bone fragments together and promote healing. The incision is then closed with sutures or staples, and a cast or brace may be applied to protect the bone during the healing process. This procedure is performed under general anesthesia and requires a hospital stay of a few days. Rehabilitation and physical therapy are necessary to restore proper function and mobility to the affected leg. The success rate of open reduction internal fixation of tibia is high, and most patients are able to return to their normal activities within a few months of the procedure.
