Abstract: ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of surgical treatment of distal tibial facture with minimally invasive perutaneous locking compression plate osteosynthesis.Methods38 patients with distal tibial fracture were treated with minimally invasive percutaneous locking compression plate(LCP) osteosynthesis.According to AO classification,twelve patients belonged to type A,fifteen type B,and eleven type C.ResultsAll patients were followed up for 6 to 19 months,with an average time of 9 months.The X-ray pictures showed that one-stage union was achieved in the patients,with a mean healing time of 16 weeks.No complications such as infection,non-union were found.The clinical outcomes were evaluated according to Mazur ankle joint function scoring.Twenty-nine were rated as excellent,six as good and three as fair,with the good-excellent rate of 92.1％.ConclusionMinimally invasive peteosynthesis is a kind of a good fixation in treatment of accelerating bone and soft tissue healing.
