Our Experience in the Surgical Treatment of Type C Tibial Pilon Fractures: About 48 Cases

Abstract

Tibial pilon fractures are rare injuries most often associated with soft tissue injuries, occurring during high-energy trauma. Surgical treatment represents the therapy of choice and must ensure anatomical reconstruction of the joint surface while respecting the surrounding tissues. The evolution of our results showed a majority of good functional clinical radio results by the open treatment which showed its superiority compared to the closed treatment and the combined treatment.
