| dc.description.abstract | Abstract Sixteen patients with comminuted tibial shaft fractures were treated by closed unlocked Kuntscher nailing and functional cast bracing. The mean follow-up period was 9.31 months. The average time required for fracture healing was 13.56 weeks. There was one delayed union. Shortening of more than 1 cm was present in 3 cases. Two patients had more than 10 degree of limitation of knee and ankle movement. Keywords: Comminuted tibial shaft fracture, closed intramedullary nailing, functional cast bracing | |
