Aim: stable fixation and early pain-free mobilization are becoming increasingly popular in fracture treatment. The findings of a prospective cohort research including distal tibial fracture repair using a distal tibial locking plate are presented in this paper, as well as their assessment in terms of precise anatomical reduction, secure fixation, and early functional restoration. Materials and methods: Distal tibial locking device was used to treat thirty patients with distal tibial fractures ranging in age from 18 to 70. The American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society's (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score was utilized in this research to predict the study's outcome. Results: The findings of a prospective cohort research including distal tibial fracture repair using a distal tibial locking plate are presented in this article, with partial articular fractures accounting for 20% and fu..
