Intraoperative Fluoroscopy for Correcting Rotational Malalignment After Fixation of Tibial Shaft Fracture: A Case Report.

Case A 29-year-old man previously treated with closed reduction and intramedullary nail (IMN) fixation for a right tibial shaft fracture presented with complaint of the foot pointing outward compared with uninjured side. He was diagnosed with tibial malrotation, and a novel intraoperative imaging technique was used for correction. Conclusion Literature suggests that the prevalence of tibial malrotation after IMN fixation is greater than previously thought. This case highlights the need for a simple and reliable intraoperative approach to guide and confirm correction of tibial malrotation after IMN fixation, and it demonstrates a technique that can be implemented with immediate results.
