Fracture of tibia and fibula shaft

The tibia and fibula are the most frequently fractured parts of long tubular bones, accounting for about 13.7% of systemic fractures. Children under the age of 10 are particularly common, with double tibia and fibula fractures being the highest, followed by tibia fractures, and simple fibula fractures being the least. Because of the location of the tibia and fibula, there are many opportunities for direct violent blows and rolling. Because the anterior medial of the tibia is close to the skin, open fractures are more common. Severe trauma, large wound area, smashed fractures, serious pollution, and tissue-based injuries are the characteristics of this disease. Which method is best to deal with has always been one of the most controversial issues in fracture treatment.
