About Closed Reduction Of Tibia Fracture

Closed Reduction of a Tibia Fracture is a non-surgical orthopedic procedure used to realign a broken shin bone (tibia) without making an incision. Performed by an orthopedic specialist, this technique involves carefully manipulating the fractured bone fragments back into their correct anatomical position from outside the skin. It is typically performed under sedation or anesthesia to ensure patient comfort. Once the bone is properly aligned, a cast or splint is applied to immobilize the leg, allowing the bone to heal naturally. This procedure is a preferred first-line treatment for many simple, stable tibial fractures, as it avoids the risks associated with open surgery and generally promotes a faster initial recovery.

Key Highlights

    Avoids surgical incisions and associated scarring.Typically involves a shorter procedure time compared to open surgery.Lower risk of surgical site infection.Often allows for a faster initial recovery and hospital discharge.Generally a more cost-effective treatment option for suitable fractures.

Who is this surgery for?

  • Simple, closed fractures (skin is not broken) of the tibial shaft.
  • Stable fracture patterns where the bone fragments can be aligned and held in place with a cast.
  • Minimally displaced or angulated fractures.
  • Fractures in children, which often heal well with this conservative approach.
  • As an initial management step before considering surgery if alignment is acceptable.

How to prepare

  • Medical evaluation including a physical exam and imaging (X-rays, sometimes CT scan).
  • Review of medical history, allergies, and current medications.
  • Fasting for several hours before the procedure if sedation or anesthesia is planned.
  • Discussion of anesthesia options (local, regional, or general) with the anesthesiologist.
  • Arranging for transportation home post-procedure, as you will not be able to drive.

Risks & possible complications

  • Failure to achieve or maintain proper bone alignment (loss of reduction).
  • Compartment syndrome (a serious condition involving increased pressure in the leg muscles).
  • Nerve or blood vessel injury from the manipulation.
  • Skin irritation, pressure sores, or allergic reaction to the cast material.
  • Joint stiffness and muscle weakness due to prolonged immobilization.
  • Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT or blood clot).
  • Delayed union or non-union of the fracture.

Recovery & hospital stay

  • Immediate post-procedure: The leg will be immobilized in a cast or splint. Elevation and ice application are crucial to reduce swelling.
  • Pain management with prescribed medications.
  • Strict non-weight bearing on the affected leg using crutches or a walker for several weeks.
  • Regular follow-up X-rays to monitor healing and alignment.
  • Cast care: Keep it clean and dry, and monitor for signs of tightness, numbness, or increased pain.
  • After cast removal: Gradual return to weight-bearing and physical therapy to restore strength, flexibility, and range of motion.
  • checked Typical hospital stay: 0-1 days (Often performed as an outpatient or with a very short observation stay)
  • checked Expected recovery time: 6-8 weeks for initial bone healing, with several months for full functional recovery

PATIENT REVIEW

Had my gallbladder out at MGM....

Had my gallbladder out at MGM. Dr. Vinod was really clear about what to expect after. The first couple days were rough, I won't lie, but his team had a good plan for the pain that actually worked. Follow-up was simple, he just told me to take it easy and call if anything felt off. Felt normal again quicker than I thought.
