ABSTRACT
We describe an extra-articular triplane fracture of distal tibia in a twelve-year-old boy. This variant of the triplane fracture has been largely ignored in the literature. The clinical significance of recognizing this fracture is that, although it constitutes an epiphyseal fracture, it remains extra-articular. We treated this case by open reduction and internal fixation of both distal tibia and fibula. However, unlike the standard triplane fracture that exits through the tibiot alar joint, this variant may be treated acceptably with less that an anatomical reduction, therefore avoiding the need for surgical management.
