Suprapatellar approach for fractures of the tibia: Does the fracture level matter?

CONCLUSION: Suprapatellar tibial IMN can be applicable to extra-articular tibial fractures in all locations. Providing easy anatomic reduction in semiextention, convenient fluoroscopic imaging, safety for the PF joint, acceptable anterior knee pain, and satisfactory functional outcomes render SP approach more feasible.
