Evaluate Clinical and Radiological Outcomes After Limb Reconstruction Using Monorail Fixator Over Intramedullary Nailing in Tibial Open Fractures With Bone Loss
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Road traffic accidents (RTA) is the most common cause of open fractures of long bones, increase in RTA leading to increase of complex non-unions incidence. the Participants are usually undergoing multiple surgeries for healing or to eradicate infection, which in turn leading to loss of bone and soft tissues and require skin grafting, muscle pedicle graft or bone grafting. Sometimes the Participants end up with deformity, limb length discrepancy, joints stiffness, disuse osteoporosis and muscle atrophy after management
