Right Lower Leg Fractures with Surgical Fixation - Medical Illustration, Human Anatomy Drawing
This stock medical illustration begins with one skeletal view of the right lower leg illustrating the pre-operative condition. This image clearly reveals the comminuted, angulated and displaced fracture of the proximal tibia, the additional comminuted fracture of the mid-shaft of the tibia and the severely angulated fracture of both the proximal and mid-shaft portion of the fibula. Next, two images are included demonstrating the fixation of the tibia. These images show the incision created exposing the tibial fracture and the insertion of a plate and multiple screws. Finally, one additional skeletal view is included illustrating the post-operative condition. This image shows the tibia realigned with a 13 hole plate and 10 screws in place.
