Insufficiency fracture of the tibial plateau: an often missed diagnosis.
The authors have performed a retrospective study of 8 patients, all elderly females, seen in the period 2002-2004 with insufficiency fractures of the tibial plateau. Their mean age was 74 years (range 70-84). There was a history of trivial trauma in all patients, except one. Three of the patients were referred to the orthopaedic department, as a fracture line was visible on the plain radiograph...
متن کاملFracture of the Tibial Plateau Is Not an Avulsion Injury
We report a case of an apparent avulsion fracture of the posteromedial margin of the medial plateau of the tibia. This was associated with a tear of the medial meniscus and rupture ofthe anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). This triad has been previously reported, and the plateau fracture was related to the insertion of the semimembranosus tendon. The detailed investigation of our case and some ex...
متن کاملCompartment syndrome after tibial plateau fracture☆
Fractures of the tibial plateau are relatively rare, representing around 1.2% of all fractures. The tibia, due to its subcutaneous location and poor muscle coverage, is exposed and suffers large numbers of traumas, not only fractures, but also crush injuries and severe bruising, among others, which at any given moment, could lead compartment syndrome in the patient. The case is reported of a 58...
متن کاملAnterolateral tibial plateau osteotomy as a new approach for the treatment of posterolateral tibial plateau fracture
RATIONALE It is challenging to visualize and reduce a posterolateral tibial plateau fracture through an anterolateral approach as the tibial plateau fragments are often covered by the fibular head and ligamentous structures. PATIENT CONCERNS In this case report, we describe a patient with a depression fracture of the posterolateral quadrant combined with a split fracture of the posteromedial ...
متن کاملInjury to the anterior tibial system during percutaneous plating of a proximal tibial fracture.
Minimally invasive osteosynthesis of proximal tibial fractures has grown in popularity in recent years. This article describes a patient with a Schatzker type VI proximal tibial fracture (AO/OTA type 41.C3) and previous compartment syndrome treated with definitive fixation 8 weeks after initial injury with a precontoured proximal tibial plate and a distal targeting device. Brisk bleeding occurr...
