FRACTURES OF THE TIBIA IN ADULTS

STEPHEN S. HUDACK M.D.1

1 Department of Surgery, College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University; Fracture Division, Presbyterian Hospital in the City of New York

The results of the operative and non-operative treatment of fractures of the tibial shaft in adults over a period of ten years have been compared. The concrete basis for the evolution of a surgical perspective under the conditions existing and under a continuity of organizational guidance has been studied.

Based upon the analysis of the cases considered, the operative treatment of compound or simple fractures of the tibia in adults, gives a surer course and better results than do the non-operative methods.
