Treatment strategy for tibial plateau fractures: an update
Tibial plateau fractures are complex injuries produced by high- or low-energy trauma. They principally affect young adults or the 'third age' population.These fractures usually have associated soft-tissue lesions that will affect their treatment. Sequential (staged) treatment (external fixation followed by definitive osteosynthesis) is recommended in more complex fracture patterns. But one shou...
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 کاملArthroscopy- assisted surgery for tibial plateau fractures.
Like other intra-articular fractures, the tibial plateau fracture is challenging for orthopedic surgeons because of its severity of trauma, associated soft tissue injuries. Open reduction incurs serious complications, especially wound healing after traditional dissections. Unsatisfactory results often occur in complex or bicondylar tibial plateau fractures. Traditional surgical methods achieved...
متن کاملSurgical approaches for tibial plateau fractures.
Tibial plateau fractures are common yet complex injuries, and include a wide variety of fracture patterns. They are also potentially associated with significant soft tissue injury. Thus, the surgeon preparing to operate on one of these fractures must choose from a variety of surgical approaches that have been described. The choice of approach is dictated principally by the fracture pattern, wit...
متن کاملArthroscopic Management for Tibial Plateau Fractures
Twenty-one tibial plateau fractures with 1 to 5 years follow-up are reviewed for the purpose of demonstrating the positive impact arthroscopy can have on patients sustaining this injury. Controversy between open and nonopen management has existed for decades. Arthroscopy bridges that controversy, allowing the advantages of accurate reduction and rigid fixation without extensive operative exposu...
