Treatment of B3 type fractures of shin bones associated with Volkmanns triangle fracture

Aim. Fractures of shin bones are the most common injuries of bones of the lower extremity. Most fractures involve ligament lesions. There are several methods for reduction of the bones, though the aim of treatment still is the stable anatomical reduction and position of the lateral bone in the ankle...
