Remodelling After Trampoline Fracture in Children

Completed

• Conditions: Tibial Fracture; Trampoline Fracture

• Registration Number: NCT04028908
• Lead Sponsor: Peter Klimek

Brief Summary

The anterior tilting of the proximal tibia epiphyseal plate is a radiological tool for the diagnosis of suspected trampoline fracture. The tibial fracture leads to a ventral tilting of the tibial Plateau. This study is to document the long-term follow-up of the anterior tilt angle and to verify, if there is an uplift of the tibia plateau with correction of the anterior tilt angle to normal values (= remodelling) in order to guarantee optimal treatment of this rare fracture.
