Having treated about 50 cases of fractures of the Upper End of the Tibia from April, 1970 to March, 1978 in our hospital we'll report the treatments and results of 16 cases of fractures, the tibial spine and 30 cases, the tibial plateau.
It ensures satisfactory results that we encourage patients to muscle gymnastic of the femoral quadriceps as early as possible after injuries in order to prevent muscle atrophy and adhesion of the patella, and that especially in the operated cases we effort to achive anatomical reduction and firm fixation to begin exercise immediately after operation.
