Abstract

There is no standardized treatment for multifragmentary fractures of the anterior tibial tuberosity (ATT) in adult patients, with or without concomitant metaphyseal fractures of the proximal tibia. This technical note aims to demonstrate the results of using a minifragment plate positioned horizontally according to the tension band principle in two patients with multifragmentary fractures of ATT.
