Abstract

Proximal tibia fractures are caused by a complex trauma, and may lead to invalidating sequelae. These fractures are caused by high-energy trauma as indirect forces in varus-valgus, axial compression and combined. The classification of these fractures is fundamental for adequate treatment (Frattini et al. in Musculoskelet. Surg. 93:109–114, 2009, Ref. [1]).
