Open reduction and internal fixation in displaced juvenile Tillaux fractures.

Injury 2007 Februrary
BACKGROUND: Juvenile Tillaux fracture is relatively an uncommon injury for which there appears no established treatment protocol.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ten patients with juvenile Tillaux fractures were treated by open reduction and internal fixation and the results were evaluated by an objective scoring system.

RESULTS: At the latest follow-up (32-75 months) mean score was 99.3 (97-100) by the score of American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society. Radiographically all fractures had healed in anatomical position.

CONCLUSION: Treatment of juvenile Tillaux fractures with 2mm or more displacement by internal fixation without any attempt of closed reduction gives excellent results.
