Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to compare the effectiveness of two fixation methods—lag screw fixation (LSF) and Kirschner wire fixation (KWF)—for treating triplane distal tibia epiphyseal fractures in children.
- - A retrospective analysis of 25 cases showed that both methods resulted in improved AOFAS scores over time; however, LSF had a lower rate of premature epiphyseal closure (PPC) compared to KWF, which reported 4 cases of PPC.
- - The conclusion indicated that while both techniques yield good clinical results, LSF offers better outcomes regarding PPC, whereas KWF has the advantage of requiring less anesthesia and surgery time.
