From the biological and biochemical points of view closed blocking intramedullary osteosynthesis is an optimum technique for the treatment of extraarticular proximal tibial fractures. The disadvantage of the technique is the complexity of reposition achievement and maintenance. Great number of surgical methods and implants with different efficacy and safety has been proposed to solve these problems. The review presents the analysis of literature dedicated to different methods of reposition achievement and maintenance in intramedullary osteosynthesis of extraarticular proximal tibial fractures.
