Extra articular distal tibia fractures are not common injuries and are usually associated with soft tissue component. Minimally Invasive Percutaneous Plate Osteosynthesis (MIPPO) preserves the vascularity of the bone thereby achieving predictable healing. A total of 25 cases were included in the study who underwent MIPPO as treatment for the injuries using locking compression plate screws devices of fixation. Majority (92%) of the fractures united within 16-24 weeks. Infection and impingement were the two most recognised complications in our study. Most of our cases (90%) had excellent to good outcome. MIPPO proves to be a reliable method of fixation for these injuries and is met with good final outcome.
