Dislocation of the proximal tibiofibular joint (PTFJ) in association with a displaced tibial shaft fracture and an intact fibula is an exceedingly rare injury. We present 2 cases of tibia fractures associated with an intact fibula and a PTFJ dislocation. The first case involves a man who sustained a closed spiral fracture of the distal tibial shaft, with an intact fibula, an anterolaterally dislocated PTFJ, and a partial tear of the lateral collateral ligament. The tibia was percutaneously plated, and the PTFJ was reduced and then stabilized with temporary screw fixation. The second case involves a woman who sustained a closed fracture of the tibia in association with a PTFJ dislocation. The tibia was fixed with an intramedullary nail, and the PTFJ was similarly reduced and fixed with a temporary screw. We also provide a brief literature review focusing on classification of PTFJ dislocations, mechanism of injury, associated injuries, and treatment options. 相似文献

ObjectiveLower leg fractures of the tibia with or without fracture of the fibula are very common. Proximal tibiofibular joint (PTFJ) dislocation is a very rare injury that can occur together with a tibia shaft fracture. As there is only scarce literature about this injury available, we would like to present our experience with the treatment of this entity.MethodsWe present a small case series of seven patients. In most cases, the tibia fracture was nailed in a closed technique. After distal locking the proximal fibula was exposed by a lateral approach exposing and preserving the peroneal nerve. After anatomical reduction into the corresponding articular facet of the proximal tibia, the fibula was transfixed to the tibia with a positioning screw. This indirectly provided a correct length and rotation of the tibia, which could finally be locked to the nail by inserting the proximal locking bolts. The positioning screw was removed after six weeks prior to full loading. Six of seven patients had been followed up by at least 7 months post-treatment.ResultsOut of 663 prospectively collected tibia shaft fractures treated at our institution from 1/2001 to 7/2014, we found seven patients with associated PTFJ dislocation. All except one had been caused by a high energy trauma. After one year, five patients showed excellent results with full range of motion and returning to their sporting activities as before the accident. Two patients have impaired function due to associated injuries. None complained of persistent pain or instability of the PTFJ.ConclusionPTFJ dislocation with tibia shaft fracture can easily be overlooked if one is not familiar with this injury. It is important to diagnose and treat this uncommon dislocation anatomically to achieve good results. Otherwise, as the literature shows, it can lead to chronic instability of the proximal fibula with snapping, proximal fibular pain and even peroneal nerve palsy. Furthermore in complex tibial fractures correct length and rotation only can be restored after referencing with the fibula. We recommend a high index of suspicion of this injury with high energy tibia shaft fractures especially in cases with intact fibula. 相似文献

The treatment of open distal tibia fractures remains challenging, particularly when the fracture is infected and involves segmental bone loss. We report the case of a 38-year-old man who sustained an open distal tibiofibular fracture with segmental bone loss and a closed proximal tibial fracture. The fractures were initially fixed with a temporary external fixator. The open distal tibial fracture was infected, and the skin was covered after the wound became culture negative. The tibia was then internally transported with a ring external fixator; the closed fracture of the proximal tibia served as the corticotomy for internal transport without conventional corticotomy. After 5?cm internal transport, the docking site of the distal tibia was fixed with a locking plate and autogenous cancellous bone graft. Bone graft was also used to the distal tibiofibular space to achieve distal tibiofibular synostosis. We describe one treatment option for an infected open fracture of the distal tibia with segmental bone loss that is accompanied by a closed fracture of the proximal tibia. This method can treat two fractures simultaneously. 相似文献

BackgroundIntramedullary-nails (IMN) are the treatment of choice for most tibial shaft fractures due to their minimally-invasive nature and non-demanding surgical technique. However, a potential iatrogenic pitfall is intra-articular interlocking screw positioning within the proximal (PTFJ) and distal (DTFJ) tibiofibular joints that may go unrecognized.ObjectiveTo evaluate the incidence of intra-articular screw penetration of the PTFJ and DTFJs after interlocking of IMN for tibial fractures.InterventionReamed IMN using modern techniques, including proximal interlocking via standard aiming jig and distal interlocking either freehand or using SureShot®.MethodsProspective series of 165 consecutive patients with a tibial shaft fracture managed with an IMN. Diagnosis and incidence of penetration of the PTFJ and DTFJ was assessed on protocolled low-dose postoperative CT-scans (standardized clinical practice for assessing rotational alignment). The degree of penetration of the TFJ’s was graded as: Grade 1–slight breach of the tibial cortex; Grade 2–clear penetration of the tibial cortex with intra-articular screw tip; and Grade 3–penetration of both tibial- and fibular cortices with screw tip in fibula.ResultsOf the 165 tibial shaft fractures, using the AO/OTA classification, 69% were simple, 16% wedge and 15% complex fractures. Following IMN 42% of patients had intra-articular screw penetration of their PTFJ whilst 39% had penetration of their DTFJ. 66% of patients had penetration of either one- or both of their TFJs. The grading of PTFJ violation was distributed as follows: Grade 1 in 24 patients; Grade 2 in 26 patients and Grade 3 in 19 patients. DTFJ violation was graded as: Grade 1 in 21 patients; 40 patients had Grade 2 violation; and four patients had a Grade 3 penetration.ConclusionsThis diagnostic imaging study reports a high rate of intra-articular screw penetration of the PTFJ and DTFJ after interlocking of IMN for tibia shaft fractures. A prospective cohort study is underway to evaluate its clinical significance.Changes to enable alteration in forced angle of interlocking screw trajectory and avoidance of the anteromedial to posterolateral locking screw may reduce the incidence of TJF violation.Level of evidenceLevel II – Diagnostic Imaging Study 相似文献

Traumatic dislocation of the knee joint is an uncommon complex, multiple ligamentous injury resulting from a high-energy trauma. Significant lack of functions can be seen because of both early and late complications of these injuries such as popliteal artery disruption, peroneal nerve injury, persistent instability and posttraumatic arthritis. Therefore, the emergency surgery is necessary due to possibility of neurovascular compromise and limb loss. Controversies over operative versus closed immobilization of traumatic complex, multiple ligamentous knee injury are still debated. We report a case of traumatic anterior dislocation of the right knee with an ipsilateral tibial shaft fracture in association with right popliteal artery occlusion of a professional athlete who was returned to his sports activity by surgical treated tibia fracture and conservative treatment of the knee dislocation. 相似文献

Pilon fractures with intact fibula have been associated with low-energy trauma. However, the compression force onto the ankle joint can damage the tibiofibular linkage as in a Maisonneuve fracture. Herein, we describe a case of a patient who had a pilon fracture (AO type 43 C3.2) without a fibular fracture. Three-dimensional preoperative simulation by reduction with the surface registration technique was performed as the fibular length was intact and there was no reference for the tibial length. The preoperative simulation revealed superior fibular head dislocation and shortening of the distal tibia. After emergency external fixation on the day of arrival, a 2-staged surgery was performed. During the first operation, the fibular head was reduced and the tibial posterolateral fragment was fixed to restore the tibia length. During the second operation, medial and anterolateral fragments were fixed in order to reduce joint surface of the distal tibia. In general, proximal fibular head fractures are easily overlooked. In the case of pilon fractures with severe length shortening of the tibia without a fibular fracture, a proximal tibiofibular injury should be suspected. 相似文献

The proximal tibiofibular joint (PTFJ) is a plane type synovial joint. The primary function of the PTFJ is dissipation of torsional stresses applied at the ankle and the lateral tibial bending moments besides a very significant tensile, rather than compressive weight bearing. Though rare, early diagnosis and treatment of the PTFJ dislocation are essential to prevent chronic joint instability and extensive surgical intervention to restore normal PTFJ biomechanics, ankle and knee function, especially in athletes prone to such injuries. PTFJ dislocations often remain undiagnosed in polytrauma scenario with ipsilateral tibial fracture due to the absence of specific signs and symptoms of PTFJ injury. Standard orthopedic textbooks generally describe no specific tests or radiological signs for assessment of the integrity of this joint. The aim of this paper was to review the relevant clinical anatomy, biomechanics and traumatic pathology of PTFJ with its effect on the knee emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis through a high index of suspicion. Dislocation of the joint may have serious implications for the knee joint stability since fibular collateral ligament and posterolateral ligament complex is attached to the upper end of the fibula. Any high energy knee injury with peroneal nerve palsy should immediately raise the suspicion of PTFJ dislocation especially if the mechanism of injury involved knee twisting in flexion beyond 80° and in such cases a comparative radiograph of the contralateral side should be performed. Wider clinical awareness can avoid both embarrassingly extensive surgeries due to diagnostic delays or unnecessary overtreatment due to misinformation on the part of the treating surgeon. 相似文献

Introduction Knee ligament injuries associated with tibia shaft fractures are usually neglected and treatment is delayed. To our knowledge,
no case presentation discusses the clinical result of closed tibial shaft fracture with concomitant ipsilateral isolated PCL
injury. In this literature, we report the clinical result of two cases that sustained closed tibial shaft fracture with concomitant
PCL injury and discuss the treatment options.
Materials and methods We report the clinical result of two cases that sustained closed tibial shaft fracture with concomitant posterior cruciate
ligament (PCL) injury. Case 1 received open reduction with plate fixation for the tibial shaft fracture, and he also received
arthroscopic reconstruction of PCL with bone-patellar tendon-bone graft due to neglecting PCL injury 5 months later after
fracture fixation. Case 2 sustained left tibial-fibular shaft fracture with isolated PCL injury confirmed by magnetic resonance
image on the first day of injury. She received tibia fixation with intramedullary nail and conservative treatment with bracing
and rehabilitation for PCL injury.
Results In case 1, the male patient only focused on fracture healing without any knee rehabilitation. His knee flexed deeply for protected
weight bearing in the injured leg which may have exacerbated the posterior instability and reduced the possibility of PCL
healing. The end result of knee function was poor even though PCL reconstruction was done later. In case 2, the female patient
with diagnosed posterior cruciate ligament injury on the day of injury, her knee was immobilized in brace with full extension,
which improved PCL healing. In addition, she received rehabilitation of quadriceps strengthening, and hamstring muscle contraction
was avoided in her daily activity. After rehabilitation, the female patient did not complain of severe subjective instability
even with an obvious posterior translation on posterior drawer test.
Conclusions We need to perform a careful physical examination of ipsilateral knee in cases of leg fractures, and MRI of knee before surgery
if any doubt exists. However, a further research is needed to conclude on the best operation and rehabilitation program in
patients with combined tibial shaft fracture and PCL injury.
No support from any institution was gained for this study. 相似文献

Fractures of the ipsilateral femur and tibia are a devastating injury complex, usually as the consequence of high-energy traumatisme.
We present a case of 42-year-old man, who sustained a simultaneous fracture of the femoral shaft and trifocal tibia. Our management
consisted of treating both the femoral and the tibial fractures surgically, by intramedullary nailing and a percutaneous screw
fixation of tibial and malleolar fracture. He was evaluated at 4 years of follow-up. With careful attention to some technical
points, femoral fracture, ipsilateral tibial plateau, shaft and malleolar fractures can be managed successfully by combining
two familiar techniques commonly employed for each injury in isolation. 相似文献

A 39-year-old woman sustained a grade II open bimalleolar fracture-dislocation of the left ankle. Six months after an ORIF of these fractures was performed, she presented with a nonunion of the distal fibula fracture and with a fixed hindfoot equinovarus and forefoot adduction deformity. At surgery for repair of the fibular nonunion, the posterior tibial tendon (PTT) was found to be entrapped in the posterior tibiotalar joint, with a portion of the tendon interposed between the tibia and the fibula in the area of the posterior syndesmosis. After extrication of the PTT, the hindfoot varus and forefoot adduction deformity were corrected. To our knowledge, this is the first case report in the English literature of a missed PTT syndesmotic entrapment that resulted in a fibular nonunion and in a fixed foot deformity after an open bimalleolar ankle fracture dislocation. 相似文献

The tibia is the most commonly fractured long bone. Although the goals of fracture management are straightforward, methods for achieving anatomical alignment and stable fixation are limited. Type of management depends on fracture pattern, local soft-tissue involvement, and systemic patient factors. Tibial shaft fractures with concomitant fibula fractures, particularly those at the same level, may be difficult to manage because of their inherent instability. Typically, management of lower extremity fractures is focused on the tibia fixation, and the associated fibula fracture is managed without fixation. In this article, we describe a novel technique for intramedullary fixation of the fibula, using a humeral guide wire as an adjunct to tibia fixation in the setting of tibial shaft fracture. This technique aids in determining length, alignment, and rotation of the tibia fracture and may help support the lower extremity as whole by stabilizing the lateral column. In addition, this technique can be used to help maintain reduction of the fibula when there is concern about the soft tissues of the lower extremity secondary to swelling or injury. Our clinical case series demonstrates the safety, effectiveness, and cost-sensitivity of this technique in managing select concurrent fractures of the tibia and fibula. 相似文献

Background
The role of stabilisation of the fibula in distal two-bone fractures of the leg is controversial. Some studies indicate the need for fibular stabilisation in 43 AO fractures, but few studies consider the role of the fibula in 42 AO fractures. The aim of the current paper is to explain the role of stabilisation of the fibula in 42 AO fractures, correlating the rates of healing and non-union between patients with and without fibula fixation.Materials and methods
A total of 60 patients with 42 AO (distal) shaft fracture of the tibia with associated fracture of the fibula were selected. Patients were divided into two groups according to whether or not the fibula was fixed: Group I (n = 26) comprised patients who had their fibula fixed while Group II (n = 34) comprised patients who did not. The fibular fracture was classified according to the AO and related to the level of the tibial fracture. Other parameters examined were the union rate of the two groups correlated to the fracture pattern and position of the fibular fracture; the demographic data, such as age and gender; the presence of an open fracture, and the type of tibial fixation device used (nail or plate).Results
None of the parameters considered (open injury, AO classification, device used and level of the fibular fracture relative to the tibial) were shown to have an influence on the development of a non-union.Conclusion
This study showed a higher non-union rate when the fracture of the tibia and fibula were at the same level, the tibia was fixed with a bridging plate and the fibula left untouched. For this reason, we recommend fibular fixation in all 42 distal fractures when both fractures lie on the same plane and the tibial fracture is relatively stabilised. 相似文献13.

The incidence and clinical details of refractures of the shaft of the tibia a series of 534 adult patients after conservative primary treatment were analysed. Fracture of the callus is defined as a secondary fracture occurring within twelve months of the primary injury in the area of bone healing by callus. A fracture of the callus was recorded in 13 patients (2.4 per cent), in whom 11 fractures occurred after a primary fracture caused by indirect, rotational violence. The incidence among these was 6.3 per cent. For torsional fractures of the tibial shaft the following factors were associated with appreciably increased frequency of subsequent fracture of the callus: repeated closed reduction; fracture of the fibula at a different level from that of the tibia, and marked initial lateral displacement. When these factors were present simultaneously, the incidence was 18 per cent. 相似文献

Salter-Harris type I (SH-I) fractures of the distal fibula are commonly encountered in pediatric orthopedics. We describe 2 unique cases of adolescents with completely displaced SH-I distal fibula fractures that were treated operatively. In the first case, a closed reduction attempt failed and the patient required open reduction and internal fixation of the distal fibula and syndesmosis. The syndesmotic ligaments were avulsed from the distal fibular metaphysis. In the second case, closed reduction of the distal fibula fracture was partially successful, but anatomic reduction could not be achieved without open reduction. The distal fibula fracture was fixed with an intramedullary screw. We believe this pattern of injury represents a variant of the adolescent transitional ankle fracture. Because the distal tibial physes were nearing complete closure in these patients, the energy propagated through the distal fibular physis. To the best of our knowledge, this combination of injuries has not been previously reported. This type of physeal fracture raises concern for premature physeal closure, fibular growth disturbance, syndesmotic instability, and medial (deltoid ligament) injury. Both patients had excellent outcomes after anatomic reduction and fixation of the displaced SH-I distal fibula fractures at 1 and 6 years of follow up, respectively. 相似文献

Arteriovenous fistula formation after a closed extremity fracture is rare. We present the case of an 11-year-old boy who developed an arteriovenous fistula between the anterior tibial artery and popliteal vein after closed fractures of the proximal tibia and fibula. The fractures were treated by closed reduction and casting. A fistula was diagnosed 12 weeks after the injury. It was treated by embolisation with coils. Subsequent angiography and ultrasonography confirmed patency of the popliteal vein and anterior and posterior tibial and peroneal arteries, with no residual shunting through the fistula. The fractures healed uneventfully and he returned to full unrestricted activities 21 weeks after his injury. 相似文献

A case report of a patient with posterior dislocation of an intact fibula at the distal tibiofibular joint is presented. This rare injury is a variant of a Bosworth fracture, which is a posterior dislocation of the fibula usually accompanied by an oblique fibular fracture. The injury was initially treated by open reduction of the fibular dislocation, repair of avulsed lateral and deltoid ligaments, and placement of a syndesmotic screw. At one year postoperative, the patient has a poor result secondary to talar avascular necrosis and secondary degenerative ankle arthritis. 相似文献

We present a case of an ipsilateral tibial shaft fracture and a distal tibial triplane fracture with an intact fibula in a 14-year-old boy. Computed tomography revealed the distal tibial triplane fracture with a 2.6-mm displaced Tillaux fragment and a posterior malleolar shear fragment. Open reduction and internal fixation was performed to optimise healing and outcome. This is a rare injury, for which a high index of suspicion is needed for diagnosis. Missing the intra-articular distal tibial triplane fracture could result in a disabling angular deformity (mostly varus) or limb-length discrepancy secondary to premature partial closure of the distal physis. 相似文献

Traumatic laceration of the tibialis anterior tendon complicating a closed tibial shaft fracture is a rare injury pattern. Only 3 such cases have been reported to date in the English literature and all were missed on initial examination. A case of a 17-year-old motorcyclist with an acute laceration of the tibialis anterior tendon resulting from a closed oblique tibial shaft fracture is presented. The tendon laceration was suspected preoperatively because of the patient's inability to actively dorsiflex his ankle joint and the existence of a palpable gap in the soft tissues over the anterolateral aspect of his tibia. Tibialis anterior tendon repair was performed simultaneously with fracture fixation. The role of careful physical examination is stressed so that this rare injury combination will not be missed. 相似文献

A 43-year-old man sustained severe injuries to his lower limbs with extensive soft-tissue damage and bilateral tibial-fibular fractures. Acutely, the patient underwent external fixation and a free latissimus dorsi flap for soft-tissue coverage of the left leg. However, the tibia had a nonviable butterfly fragment that left a 7-cm defect after debridement. Subsequently, the contralateral fractured fibula was used as a bridging vascularized graft for this tibial defect. The transfer of a fibula containing the zone of injury from a previous high-energy fracture has not been reported. This case demonstrates the successful microvascular transfer of a previously fractured fibula for the repair of a contralateral tibial bony defect. 相似文献

Summary
There are 2 types of a combined tibia fracture and ankle injury: in Type I the tibia fracture extends directly into the ankle
joint, in Type II the tibia fracture goes along with a fracture of the fibula and disruption of the fibular-tibial syndesmosis.
This type of fracture must be distinguished from a pilon tibiale fracture. The typical mechanism for this combined tibia and
ankle injury is the indirect torsional trauma with pronation-eversion. From 1995 to 1997 188 patients with fractures of the
tibia were treated by internal fixation in our Trauma Department. 27 of these patients (13.6 %) had a combined tibia and ankle
injury. Most of the tibia fractures were located in the distal third, a spiral fracture (16 patients) or a comminuted fracture
(6 patients), and another group extending directly into the ankle (5 patients). The ankle lesion was a distal fibular fracture
(Weber Typ B + C) in 14 patients, a proximal fibular fracture (Type maisoneuve) in 6 patients, a postero-lateral fragment
in 11 cases and a fracture of the medial melleolus in 10 cases. A disrupture of the anterior tibio-fibular syndesmosis was
seen in 18 patients, 3 times as an isolated lesion of the ankle joint without fracture of the fibula. The osteosynthesis of
the tibia fracture was performed with an unreamed tibia nail in 20 patients, with elastic-biologic plate fixation in 6 and
with external fixation in 1 patient. The fibula fractures were stabilized by small fragment titaneum plates, the dorsolateral
fragment and the medial malleolus were stabilized by lag-screws, the tibio-fibular ligament was sutured and, in a few cases
only, held in place by a positioning screw. The outcome was controlled after 20,7 month according to the Phillip's Score (1996).
We found not more than one pour results. It must be considered, that most of the combined injuries of the tibia and the ankle
joint concerning 13,6 % of all tibia shaft fractures are usually not recognized and may result in an arthrosis of the ankle
joint. The attention should be focused to the ankle joint in any spiral fractures of the distal tibia after indirect trauma,
especially with a proximal fibular fracture or an intact fibula. Additional X-ray examination of the ankle joint is recommended
during internal fixation of the tibia. Posttraumatic arthrosis of the ankle joint can be prevented by diagnosis and adequate
anatomical reconstruction of the additional ankle joint injury.
