Clinical trials: Pilon Fracture of Tibia
Post-traumatic; Arthrosis, Tibial Fractures
Does Joint Lavage Reduce Intraarticular Inflammation in High-energy Tibial Pilon Fractures?
High-energy tibial pilon fractures have historically been associated with poor outcomes largely due to the elevated risk of severe post-traumatic arthritis.

Pilon Fracture
Two-stage ORIF Vs Ex. Fix. in Complex Pilon Fractures
This study aims to compare the clinical, radiological, and functional outcomes of two-stage open reduction and internal fixation with single-stage external fixation in the treatment of comminuted tibial pilon fractures.
- Trial name
- NCT05141227
- Testing
- Two-stage Open reduction and internal fixation ( ORIF) using plates & screws, single-stage external fixation (EX.FIX.) with minimal internal fixation using cannulated screws if needed
- Where
- Egypt
