Comparison of lateral parapatellar vs. infrapatellar approaches for intramedullary nailing for tibial shaft fractures

BackgroundThis study aimed to evaluate the clinical and functional outcomes of tibial shaft fractures treated with intramedullary nailing (IMN) using the lateral parapatellar entry (LPE) and infrapatellar (IP) surgical approaches.MethodsA total of 85 patients with tibial shaft fractures treated with...
