Abstract
Tibial diaphyseal fractusres were treated by various methods and intramedullary interlocking nailing has evolved as a gold standard treatment. The clinical and radiological outcomes have been good and complication rates are low in most case series. We prospectively studied 45 cases of tibial diaphyseal fractures treated with intramedullary nailing. We had good clinical and functional outcomes as assessed by Johner and Wruh’s criteria and very few complications.
