About this trial

Most displaced tibial shaft fractures in pediatric patients have traditionally been treated after reduction by cast immobilization with good long-term results. Recently, there has been a growing trend towards surgical intervention by osteosynthesis from the outset. This study aims to describe the results of orthopedic treatment and osteosynthesis from the outset.
