Abstract :

<p>&nbsp;<span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:&quot;Camia&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;;&#10;mso-fareast-font-family:&quot;MS Mincho&quot;;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;;&#10;mso-ansi-language:EN-US;mso-fareast-language:EN-US;mso-bidi-language:AR-SA">Fractures in the distal tibial metaphysis are more complicated to treat than diaphyseal fractures. The treatment of distal metaphyseal tibial fractures remains controversial. This retrospective study was performed in a rural set up to review the outcomes of distal tibial metaphyseal fractures by locked intramedullary nailing and its outcome in rural setup.&nbsp;</span></p>
