title: [Double fractures of the tibia: comparison of methods of treatment].
abstract: The experience regarding the treatment of bifocal fractures at the Orthopedic Clinic of the University of Padua during a five-year period (1980-1985) is reported. The bloodless method has been abandoned in favor of modern osteosynthesis techniques, which have permitted a shorter healing time, with fewer cases of hospitalization and a more favorable outcome.
