Purpose: To evaluate outcome of intramedullary nailing supplemented with Poller screws for proximal tibial fractures using small diameter nails.
Methods: 50 men and 20 women (75 fractures) aged 18 to 65 (mean, 33) years underwent intramedullary nailing supplemented with Poller screws for acutely displaced fractures (n=60) or for delayed union (n=10) or mal-union (n=5) of the proximal metadiaphyseal tibia. 88% of the fractures were caused by road traffic accidents.
