Study of healing outlook after certain shinbone growth-plate fractures
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at what factors predict healing and outcomes for a specific kind of shinbone fracture in the leg growth area. It may help doctors better estimate prognosis and choose care plans for similar fractures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your fracture is new (less than 7 days old)
- It is a closed injury (not an open wound)
- The fracture type matches S-H I or II (not S-H III/IV/V)
- It affects only one leg, with no other fractures or major injuries
- The growth plate is still open (not already closed) and Risser grade is 0–IV
- Your other leg’s lower-extremity side is normal, and you can sign consent

This study looks back at how children and teens with a displaced break in the middle part of the shinbone were treated at Strasbourg University Hospital. It aims to compare different treatments (like a cast or surgery) to learn which work best.
This study compares two types of metal rods (nails) placed inside the shin bone to fix a broken tibia. One rod is standard and the other allows tiny, controlled movements at the break to see if healing improves.
This trial tests whether a robot-assisted surgery can help realign and fix a broken shin bone (tibia) near the ankle. It may be an option for people with a simple, closed fracture who were able to walk before the injury.
This trial looks at a specific type of knee fracture — one that involves the back part of the shin bone. It aims to learn more about these injuries and how to best treat them.
This study compares two types of surgery for a certain kind of shinbone (tibia) fracture in teenagers. The goal is to see which method leads to better healing and recovery with fewer complications.
This study compares two surgical techniques for fixing complex tibial plateau fractures (breaks in the upper shin bone near the knee) to see which one leads to better knee function. You may be able to join if you have this type of fracture and are between 18 and 65 years old.
