- Doctors have some difficulties in deciding the duration of expected treatment for certain trauma patient in issuing medical certificate because of rarity of references about the medical certificate. In 1996, Korean Medical Association published Guide to Medical Certificate which helped many doctors in their practice of certificate issuing. But in reviewing the contents of the book, we would like to point out a few problems for amendment in next issue.

Abstract
PDF
- The authors retrospectively reviewed 22 pilon fractures in 22 patients treated with limited ORIF with external fixation by Ilizarov method. Clinical follow up averaged 28 months (range, 16-45 months). Interfragmental screw fixation of key fragments were done in fifteen cases and bone-grafting was done in thirteen cases. The average duration of external fixation was fourteen weeks. All of the fractures healed (one after delayed bone-grafting). The subjective and objective results were classified according to Ovadia and Beals. Sixteen patients (72%) had good and excellent results at final follow up. On the basis of these early results, the prevalence of complications asociated with pilon fractures and their treatments can be decreased by external fixation of Ilizarov method and limited internal fixation. We conclude that this method is good treatment modality on tibial pilon frature.
