Abstract
Plating of distal tibial fractures offers some risk of soft tissue problems. Even the recently developed fixed-angle plates need great care in handling the soft tissue and may fail due to their smaller dimension. On the other hand, conventional plates still are a suitable tool for stabilization of such fractures. In case of fractures of both the tibia and fibula, stabilization of the latter is recommended as well.
