U.S., Jan. 3 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07315581) titled 'Does Age Matter? Outcomes of Pilon Fracture Fixation in Patients Above and Below 40 Years: A Comparative Study' on Dec. 11, 2025.
Brief Summary: Pilon fractures are severe intra-articular injuries in the distal tibial plafond that result primarily from high-energy axial compression mechanisms such as road traffic accidents or falls from height [1]. They constitute 1-10% of all tibial fractures and frequently involve significant comminution and compromise of the soft-tissue envelope [1,2]. Successful management requires anatomical reduction of the articular surface, restoration of limb alignment, and careful protection of the soft tis...
