Tibia Fracture – Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment
Tibia fractures are common injuries. The subcutaneous nature of the tibia makes it more prone to open injury. The musculature about the lower leg divides into four compartments separated by fascial tissue. Radiographs are essential in the initial evaluation of Read More …
Tibia – Bone Land Marks, Anatomy, Muscle Attachment
The tibia also is known as the shinbone or shank bone, is the larger, stronger, and anterior (frontal) of the two bones in the leg below the knee in vertebrates (the other being the fibula, behind and to the outside of the tibia), and it connects the knee with the ankle bones. The Read More …
Nonunion – Causes, Symptoms, Treatment
Nonunion is a permanent failure of healing following a broken bone unless intervention (such as surgery) is performed. A fracture with nonunion generally forms a structural resemblance to a fibrous joint and is therefore often called a “false joint” or pseudoarthrosis (the Greek stem “pseudo-” means false and Read More …
