| Core Tip |
Tillaux fractures that require surgery can undergo screw fixation by all-epiphyseal or trans-epiphyseal techniques. This study shows that there were no statistically significant differences between the functional outcomes or complications between the two techniques. Therefore, we suggest using the trans-epiphyseal techniques because it has an easier screw trajectory in surgery, all-epiphyseal screws have been shown to increase pressure in the tibiotalar joint, and the trajectory is trigonometrically a better angle to compress the fracture. |
