Study type | Interventional |
This is a randomised, bi-centre, prospective, clinical trial in patients with closed tibia shaft fractures. The fracture should be fresh/acute and seen within 3 weeks after the injury. Patients will be randomised to surgery with either a Taylor Spatial Frame (Smith & Nephew, England) or a reamed intramedullar nail (according to local choice) with locking screws. Primary outcome measure is the physical component summary (PCS) of RAND Short form 36 (SF-36) after 2 years. Among secondary outcomes: Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain, complications, healing, malunion, and resource use.

Eligibility |
Inclusion Criteria: - Closed tibia shaft fractures suited for both study treatments. - A patient who is informed of the purpose of the investigation and who has given informed consent and willingness to accept randomisation either to Taylor Spatial Frame or intramedullary nailing. - Willingness and ability to comply with all investigation procedures - Age between 18 to 70 years - Skeletally mature - Previous unaided walking Exclusion Criteria: - Participation in other clinical investigations that will interfere with this study - Mental illness or other conditions that preclude ring fixator in the judgment of the investigator - Any other concurrent condition(s) that, in the judgment of the investigator, would prohibit the patient from participation in the study - No other injury or previous disease that would be likely to seriously influence the long term outcome (this will exclude e.g. osteomyelitis, vascular or neurological disorder of the lower extremities, rheumatoid artist, malignancy that could influence on bone healing) - Compartment syndrome before randomisation - Pathologic fracture - Ongoing or previous use the last year of drugs that can be bone anabolic (e.g. anabolic steroids, growth hormone, parathyroid hormone) |
