Abstract

Background: The most frequent injuries are lower limb fractures because road traffic accidents, which are the main cause of trauma, are occurring more frequently worldwide. Recent developments and the creation of newer fixation techniques have produced promising results in the treatment of complex lower limb fractures thanks to a better understanding of fracture healing. In our study, we treat lower limb fractures with a novel plate fixation method known as biological plate fixation-bridge plating. The two major fracture fragments are fixed by using the plate as an internal fixator. Without affecting the intricate fracture zone, length, alignment, and rotation are restored. In this case, as opposed to the traditional plating method, the fracture is healed by callus formation
