Abstract
We report on the management of a patient who following a road traffic accident sustained
a grade IIIB open fracture of the distal tibia with acute bone loss of the talus and
distal tibia.
The patient was managed with acute bone resection, and the two-stage Masquelet technique.
He underwent stabilization with a hind-foot nail, application of RIA auto-graft and
arthrodesis of the affected joint with a satisfactory functional outcome.
