title: Arthroscopic treatment in split depression-type tibial pilon fracture.
abstract: Treatment of tibial pilon fractures is complicated and often very invasive. Partial fractures with a depressed component raise the question of the choice of surgical technique. Minimally invasive surgical reduction under arthroscopic guidance appears to be a promising alternative in this type of fracture. We describe a technique for arthroscopically assisted treatment of a split depression tibial pilon fracture.
