摘要
The reamed intramedullary (IM) technique has many benefits. However, open plating is the most commonly used technique. Previously, IM stabilization was reserved for fibular fractures, which were given lower priority, and generally associated with injuries to the distal tibia or instances in which the soft tissue envelope was unsuitable for an open approach. This article reviews the literature and the level of evidence and presents case examples and operative technique.
