Comparative Analysis of Clinical Outcomes of Tibial Plateau Fractures and Computed Tomography Examinations

Abstract: 1. Articular step-off and widening of the lateral condyle strongly correlates with the clinical outcome of tibial plateau fracture treatment. 2. The presence and extent of subchondral bone defects in the tibial plateau are related to knee pain in patients but have no effect on the range of motion and the IKDC score. 3. Bone graft remodeling cannot be fully assessed despite the use of MARS in CT imaging.

“…The main goals in the treatment of tibia plateau fractures include anatomic reduction of articular surface, maintenance of normal knee alignment, provision of knee stability and restoration of a painless range of motion and function [4,[11][12][13]. Schatzker type IV tibial plateau fractures involving posteromedial plane remain difficult, because they usually accompany with meniscus and ligaments injuries.…”

“…Soft tissue injuries with these injuries may vary and treatment is uncertain [7, 18, 23]. No definitive study has determined that closed or open treatment of TPFs is superior [8, 10, 12, 14, 19] but accurate reduction may provide better long‐term results [14, 15]. The posterolateral quadrant of the articular surface is the most difficult to get accurately reduced with closed treatment and fluoroscopic aided reduction techniques [12].…”

“…One concern with CRIF could be the high incidence of intra‐articular soft tissue injuries not addressed when the surgeon does not visualize the joint surface [1]. Despite this, the functional relevance of the type of surgical technique in relation to long‐term outcomes with these injuries remains unclear [15].…”

“…The internal and external condyle of the tibia is in the lower part of the body and is vulnerable to trauma in daily life. Fractures of the internal and external tibial condyle occur most frequently in long tubular fractures of the whole body, accounting for about 12% [1].Fractures are often caused by strenuous exercise and high-energy trauma, such as overloading, motor vehicle accidents, or falls [2].The fracture of 1/3 of the sub condyle of the internal and external tibial condyle is prone to damage the main blood feeding nourishing artery, and the fracture does not heal or is delayed due to the poor blood supply at the distal end [3].High energy tibial fractures are often comminuted fractures with soft tissue open injuries, vascular and nerve injuries. Uncertain blood supply and loss of soft tissue cover are the main causes of infection in open fractures [4].…”
