Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate if immediate mobilization with weight bearing as tolerated following surgery with plates and screws after a fracture of the shinbone near the knee is possible without increased risk.

The investigators hypothesize immediate weight bearing as tolerated following surgery with plates and screws of the above mentioned fracture, in cases deemed stable by the surgeon, will not lead to any loss of reduction.
