Fractures of the proximal and distal tibia have traditionally been challenging for the treating orthopaedist.The short periarticular fracture segment and tenuous soft-tissue envelope has made internal fixation using traditional open approaches difficult and often fraught with complications. In this study, we evaluated the use of minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis in management of non-articular proximal and distal tibial fractures. Out of the 23 fractures managed by this method 19 fractures showed uncomplicated healing within a reasonable period of time (average 3 months). The complication rate was considered minimal; one case of non union, two cases of delayed union and one case of infected non-union. However, we passed through a learning curve during performing this study, with most of the complications occurring with the early cases.
