Brief Summary: The aim of this study is to study the incidence of open tibial fractures in early teenagers and evaluate the management outcomes
Detailed Description: Tibial fractures are the third most common long bone fracture after the femur and forearm representing 15 of all pediatric fractures Tibial fracture is a common injury in children and it usually involves the diaphysis and distal metaphyseal region Open fracture tibia must be considered orthopedic emergencies due to the high risk of contamination osteomyelitis malformation nonunion and disability The anteromedial aspect of the tibia is subcutaneous with no overlying musculature for protection and the middledistal tibia has no muscular origins which can delay union in these areas The biology of the repair of fractures in children differs from that in adults in several ways The soft tissues have excellent healing capacity uncontaminated devitalised bone is salvageable and periosteum in children can regenerate bone in the presence of bone loss Union is faster Modalities of treatment of open fracture tibia in teenagers Including Closed reduction followed by a well- molded casting debridement followed by casting utilization of external fixator EF remains a popular choice for open injuries Severely comminuted and unstable fractures and those with significant soft tissue or vascular injury require external fixation However pin tract infection PTI and refracture are common complications during the application of EF Elastic Nail has also been reported with an acceptable for the treatment of open tibial fractures

open reduction and internal fixation ORIF was reserved for situations in which an adequate reduction could not be obtained or maintained by conservative Also Closed reduction and intramedullary nail fixation appropriate for the treatment of extraarticular distal tibial fractures
