Recent surgical advances allow for a minimally invasive approach to such injuries, which may improve healing times, increase union rates, and decrease complication rates. The Less Invasive Stabilization System (LISS) for proximal tibia fractures employs a laterally based fixed angled implant, allowing for the placement of locking screws proximal and distal to the fracture, which may be placed percutaneously. This manuscript presents the surgical technique and indications of the Tibia LISS. A preview of the early clinical results of the treatment of bicondylar tibial plateau fractures and proximal tibia diaphysis will also be presented.<p> Treatment Outcome 2022-02-21T22:48:57.408-06:00 public Postoperative Complications/etiology
