Abstract
Background: Pilon fractures make up one percent of all breaks in the lower extremities and five to seven percent of all fractures of the tibia. Pilon fractures are caused by events with a lot of force like car accidents and falls from a high place, which put direct axial pressure on the tibial plafond and push it into the joint. The most common way to break a pilon is to fall from a high place. Even though there have been a lot of improvements in how these fractures are treated in the last few years, there is still a lot of disagreement about which treatment is best. Aim of the Work: The goal of this study is to look at both the effectiveness of minimally invasive fixations and the results of these types of fixations in treating pilon fractures in adults. Patients and Methods: This research was carried out between January 2021 and December 2021 at the hospitals affiliated with the Al-Azhar University, which are known as the Al-Hussien and Sayed Galal hospitals.
