Abstract:Purpose
This research aims to evaluate the stress and stability of Schatzker IV-C subtype tibial plateau fractures through finite element simulation, comparing various internal fixation techniques.
Methods
A 3D finite element model was created for a Schatzker IV C tibial plateau fracture, evaluating five internal fixation methods through computer simulations. The methods included: Medial Plate (Model 1), Medial Plate with Two Posterior Tension Screws (Model 2), Medial Plate with Two Lateral Tension Screws (M… Show more
