Popis:	The objective of this study is to compare the radiographic results and clinical outcome of unreamed tibial nailing (UTN) and Ilizarov external fixation (IEF) for the treatment of open fractures of the tibia. Patients with open tibial shaft fractures were treated with an IEF or UTN. Both groups were compared for union time, nonunion, infections, mechanical failure of the implant, and malunion. We searched numerous sources and eventually included studies, totaling participants.
