Abstract EN
The operative treatment of tibial fractures in late pregnancy is a controversial issue that is rarely discussed in the literature.
Here we present a case of a tibial diaphyseal fracture in a woman that was 36 weeks pregnant, which was treated with intramedullary nails under noninvasive foetal monitoring with cardiotocography.
The patient underwent a successful surgery, and no harm or adverse events to either the mother or the foetus were reported during or after the procedure.
Following surgery, the mother had a comfortable pregnancy and a normal spontaneous vaginal delivery with a healthy newborn.
