Objective: Angle stable interlocking intramedullary nail (ASIN), a novel technique, has rarely been used for treatment of tibial plateau fractures (TPF). This retrospective study was designed to introduce this novel technique, ASIN, as well as to describe the initial experience and verify the effectiveness when ASIN was used for the management for TPF.
Methods: A cohort of 19 cases with closed TPF aged from 18-70 years with at least 23 months follow-up from November 2008 to September 2013 was analyzed retrospectively.
