暂无简介。

•1. Men or women age over 18 years
•2. Fracture of the tibial shaft with complete anterioposterior and lateral radiographs
•3. Closed or grade I open tibial shaft fracture amenable to non-operative treatment (less than 1.5 cm of shortening, axially stable transverse fractures, spiral oblique of comminuted fractures with less than 12 mm of initial shortening; angulations less than 5° initially; less than 50% displacement)
•4. Provision of informed consent

•1. State that they cannot comply with the study protocol
•2. Have pathological fractures or fractures that are to be treated operatively (comminuted fractures; unstable fracture patterns; tibial shaft shortening greater than 1.5 cm)
•3. Likely problems, in the judgment of the investigators, with maintaining follow-up (such as no fixed address, plan to move out of town in the next year)
