The aim of this study was to evaluate the treatment of open tibia fractures by flexible medullary nailing.METHODS: This descriptive-analytical study was performed on 44 patients suffering from open tibial fractures treated with flexible medullary nails in Shahid Beheshti and Yahyanejad hospitals from 1998-2001. In this study with limited incision, fixation of open fractures (gustilo type I to type IIIA) was done by 2-3 nails (3mm or 3.5mm).

FINDINGS: Mean age of patients was 29.8 years and 37(84.1%) patients were male. The average time of :::union::: was 6.1 months.
