Morphological characteristics of posterolateral articular fragments in tibial plateau fractures.
Treatment of posterolateral tibial plateau fractures is controversial, and information regarding this specific fracture pattern is lacking. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the frequency and morphological features of posterolateral articular fragments in tibial plateau fractures. A retrospective radiographic and chart review was performed on a consecutive series of patients who sustai...
متن کاملExtended anterolateral approach for treatment of posterolateral tibial plateau fractures improves operative procedure and patient prognosis.
PURPOSE The treatment of posterolateral tibial plateau fracture remains controversial and challenging. Several approaches for this fracture have been applied for direct exposure and support plate fixation. However, several structures are to be at risk via posterior approach, which may affect exposure and plate application. To solve this problem, an extended anterolateral approach was developed ...
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 کاملTreatment of posterolateral tibial plateau fractures with modified Frosch approach: a cadaveric study and case series
This study aimed to investigate the surgical techniques and the clinical efficacy of a modified Frosch approach in the treatment of posterolateral tibial plateau fractures. The standard Frosch approach was performed on 5 fresh-frozen cadavers. The mean bony surface area was measured upon adequate exposure of the proximal tibial cortex. Lateral proximal tibial plate and posterolateral T-plates w...
متن کاملTreatment of the Posterolateral Tibial Plateau Fractures using the Anterior Surgical Approach
BACKGROUND Fracture of the posterolateral tibial plateau is relatively uncommon. While surgical treatment by the posterior approach is theoretically ideal, this approach is associated with numerous complications. We describe a series of fractures of the posterolateral tibial plateau treated by the anterior surgical approach. METHODS Fifteen patients with posterolateral tibial plateau fracture...
