Overview
Introduction
The Ortho Case Insight Series features case-based orthopedic trauma education from Dr Kareem Shaath, highlighting surgical decision-making, technique considerations, and clinical insights for managing complex fracture patterns.
In this episode, Dr Shaath reviews proximal tibia fracture cases using the TRIGEN◊ MAX Tibia Nailing System, with discussion focused on fracture reduction, implant selection, and fixation strategies for challenging proximal tibia anatomy.
The TRIGEN MAX Tibial Nailing System is designed to support tibia fracture treatment with implant options and instrumentation intended to help address a range of tibia fracture patterns.
Pre-requisites
- A proficient knowledge of lower extremity, especially tibia, anatomy and long bone fracture management
What you will learn
- Assess complex proximal tibia fracture patterns with intra-articular, metaphyseal, and diaphyseal involvement to support appropriate surgical planning and fixation strategy selection
- Describe the use of a nail-plate construct for managing complex proximal tibia fractures, including articular reduction, plate placement, and intramedullary nail fixation
- Explain how variable-angle proximal locking options can be utilized to capture medial and posteromedial fragments while minimizing the need for additional medial approaches in select patients
