Treatment of extra-articular upper metaphyseal tibial fractures can be difficult. Orthopedic treatment is frequently complicated by second displacement These fractures are inappropriate for locked intra-medullary nailing because of the shorteness of the proximal extremity. Damages of soft tissues. frequently associated with these factures, expose internal osteosynthesis to many risks. For these reasons, we opted for external fixation. Our study was a retrospective analysis of 46 extra-articular metaphyseal tibial fractures treated by external fixation with Hoffman material. The average follow-up was 24 months. Consolidation was obtained within 4 months in average. Septic complications. inherent to the method were uncommon or minor. Functional results were satisfactory in 84% of cases. So, external fixation with Hoffman material. with particular recommandations, is a promising method for the treatment of extra-articular of proximal metaphyseal tibial fractures.
