Abstract

Background: OPEN tibial shaft fracture is the most common long bone OPEN fracture, and its main complications are infection and non-union. Unreamed tibial nails have been introduced to reduce such complications. We are reporting our experience with this instrument. Methods: 54 consecutive OPEN tibial FRACTURES that had been treated with unreamed tibial nails (UTN) were studied. There were 22 grade I, 19 grade II, 13 grade IIIA Gustilo-Anderson OPEN FRACTURES. The cases had an average of 11.5 months follow-up. Results: In the short-term follow-up of one year 14 cases (26%) of delayed union, 2 (3.6%) aseptic non-union, and 2 infections (3.6%) were encountered. The two non-unions and six of delayed unions were grade IIIA OPEN FRACTURES. The delayed unions were distal third shaft FRACTURES in half of the cases. The time to union was 17.5 weeks on average- being longer for grade IIIA and distal shaft FRACTURES. Conclusions: With this short-term follow-up report, UTN seems to be an effective instrument for OPEN tibial FRACTURES.
