Abstract:Fractures affecting the tibial plateau posterior aspect represent a difficult challenge in terms of treatment. Treating articular depression in tibial plateau fractures often involves elevating the fragment (s), residual defect filling utilizing bone grafts or substitutes, as well as providing support to the articular fracture reduction using screws via a plate positioned medially and/or laterally. Treatment of tibial plateau fracture may be non-operative or operative. Fracture proximal tibia can be surgically… Show more
