This report is being filed after the review of the following journal article: vasyuk v.L., koval o.A., (2018) closed minimally invasive osteosynthesis of metaepiphyseal fractures of the distal tibial bones, trauma volume 19, no 5, pages 1-12 (ukraine).This study aims to improve the results of surgical treatment of distal tibial metaphyseal fractures by developing, substantiating, and implementing an improved technique of minimally invasive osteosynthesis.During the period from 2007 to 2017, 342 patients (206 males, 136 female) with fractures of the distal segment of the leg bones were operated on in the clinic of the bukovinian state medical university¿s academic department of traumatology and orthopedics.Of these, fractures of the osteosynthesis was performed in 265 patients using the following plates: clover-shaped plate ¿ 63 patients, l-shaped lcps (with angular stability) ¿ 21 patients, wires ¿ 57 patients, efa ¿ 19 patients, efa + wires ¿ 14 patients, efa + plates ¿ 23 patients, efa for small segments ¿ 68 patients.The patients were divided into clinical groups depending on the type of surgery: clinical group i included patients treated with minimally invasive screw-wire osteosynthesis (113 patients with 51 females and 62 males), patients over 60 years old prevailed ¿ 33 patients.The next age groups were: 30¿40 years old (22 patients), 50¿60 years old (21 patients).Clinical group ii included patients treated with efa osteosynthesis (36 patients with 14 females and 22 males with a median age of 46.05 years), and clinical group iii included patients treated with plate osteosynthesis (116 patients with 49 females and 67 males with median age of 41.76 ± 15.04 years).The following complications were reported as follows: clinical group iii: a significant number of patients showed degenerative changes in bone tissue, the phenomena of post-traumatic arthrosis, and persistent contractures of the ankle joint.A case of patient l born in (b)(6), was admitted to the trauma department for adults on 05/17/2010 with the diagnosis: closed comminuted spiral fracture of the distal metaepiphysis of both bones of the right tibia with a displacement of fragments 43-a3.3.The patient underwent osteosynthesis of the right tibia with a plate with angular stability, a reconstructive plate, and screws, osteosynthesis of the fibula with a reconstructive plate.The long-term result after 8 years the patient was diagnosed with persistent contracture of the ankle joint, post-traumatic osteoarthritis of the third stage.This report is for unknown synthes l-shaped lcps (with angular stability).
