Abstract
Anterior tibial spine fracture is relatively a rare injury in orthopedic practice. Undisplaced and minimally displaced (type 1&2) fractures can be treated by closed reduction and long leg cast. To avoid persistent post injury instability and secondary degenerative changes displaced tibial spine fractures (type3) need to be managed surgically. In this study, all displaced tibial spine fractures (type3) are treated with open reduction and internal fixation with stainless steel wires except in one case which is fixed with non absorbable suture. During follow up very good result are obtained in respect to satisfactory reduction, healing of fractures, and range of motion and stability of knee.
