Study Summary
This study compares two techniques for the fixation of tibial fractures. The techniques are the suprapatellar (above knee)or infrapatellar (below knee) approach to tibial intramedullary nailing. Null hypothesis: There is no difference in 1) residual post-operative pain levels, 2)knee function, 3) healing and alignment of the tibia, or 4) trochlear changes in the patello-femoral cartilage between patients who are randomized to receive tibial nail insertion through either a suprapatellar nail entry portal or a standard patellar tendon approach.
Primary Outcome
A Visual Analog Scale (VAS) will be used for knee pain, as well as a pain location diagram and a Lysholm knee score.
