Tibial Plateau Fractures in Elderly Patients
Tibial plateau fractures are common in the elderly population following a low-energy mechanism. Initial evaluation includes an assessment of the soft tissues and surrounding ligaments. Most fractures involve articular depression leading to joint incongruity. Treatment of these fractures may be complicated by osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and medical comorbidities. Optimal reconstruction should ...
متن کاملFailure of fixation of tibial plateau fractures.
OBJECTIVE To define the failure of fixation in tibial plateau fractures, detect its incidence, and determine the contributing factors. DESIGN Mail survey and literature review were used to define the fixation failure; this definition was applied to a radiologic review of patients who were treated surgically for tibial plateau fracture at a Level 1 trauma unit for a three-year period from 1993...
متن کاملPopulation-Based Epidemiology of Tibial Plateau Fractures.
Although epidemiologic studies of tibial plateau fractures have been conducted, none have included geographically defined populations or a validated fracture classification based on computed tomography (CT). The goals of this study were to provide up-to-date information on the incidence and basic epidemiology of tibial plateau fractures in a large unselected patient population and to report the...
متن کاملTreatment of high-energy tibial plateau fractures
Treatment of high-energy fractures of the tibial plateau requires an inordinate degree of surgical effort in order to avoid complications. Fracture reduction can be a challenge to experienced hands and the soft tissue conditions are intolerant of careless dissection. In general, it is an oversimplification to use one technique of stabilisation for such a heterogenous group (even within one clas...
متن کاملclinical instability of the knee and functional differences following tibial plateau fractures versus distal femoral fractures
background fractures of the knee account for about 6% of all trauma admissions. while its management is mostly focused on fracture treatment, it is not the only factor that defines the final outcome. objectives this study aimed to study objective and subjective outcomes after proximal tibial versus distal femoral fractures in terms of knee instability and health-related quality of life. patient...
