Arthroscopic-Assisted and Minimally Invasive Plate Osteosynthesis of Tibial Plateau Fractures

Background: Tibial plateau fractures are relatively rare fractures and have always been a challenge for orthopedic surgeons. These fractures may result in significant limitations postoperatively if not treated properly. The role of arthroscopic-assisted fixation of tibial plateau fractures has been advocated in many pieces of literature in the world during the last decades. Several studies have been published regarding arthroscopically assisted internal fixation of tibial plateau fractures. As it is an intra-articular lesion, surgical management is often challenging. We have very little data regarding these issues. The aim of this study was to assess the clinical and radiological outcome after arthroscopic-assisted minimally invasive plate fixation of tibial plateau fractures. Methods: This was a descriptive observational study which was conducted in…
