Failure 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 کاملInsufficiency 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 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...
