Functional and radiological outcome of schatzker type II, III, VI fractures treated via subchondral RAFT system combined with locking compression plate
Abstract:Need for the study: Treatment of proximal tibia fracture is difficult especially when intraarticular and metaphyseal comminution present. The tibial plateau involves weight bearing so restoration of joint congruity is important to preserve normal function of knee. Subchondral raft construction is one popular method under investigation for this purpose where subchondral screws support the bone pieces along with cartilage and prevent it to depress again. Aim: to evaluate clinical and radiological results of Scha… Show more
