Receiving ultrasound after surgery to repair a fractured tibia (shinbone) does not accelerate healing or improve functional recovery compared with sham treatment, finds a trial. Receiving ultrasound ...

Until now, there's never been a tool that could determine how long it will take a patient to heal from a tibial fracture. But researchers have found that a virtual mechanical test can do just that.

Tibia fracture can be common and is usually caused by an injury or repetitive strain on the bone. The recovery and healing time for tibia fracture differs and depends on the type and severity of the ...

Tibial plateau fractures are rare, making up around 1% of all fracture injuries. Tibial plateau fractures usually result from severe trauma. But these fractures can also happen when you have weakened ...

Background In the last years intramedullary nailing has become the treatment of choice for most displaced diaphyseal tibia fractures. In contrast intramedullary nailing of distal tibia fractures is ...
