Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical results of a combination of lateral buttress plate and medical antiglide plate internal fixation for biocondylar tibia plateau fractures. Methods A total of 26 biocondylar tibia plateau fractures belonged to type Ⅴ and type Ⅵ according to Schatzker classification and treated with open reduction. Lateral buttress plate and medical antiglide plate were applied for limited internal fixation. The follow up continued till fracture healing to observe if there existed bone dislocation and determine the range of knee motion and Iowa knee score. Results No obvious shift of fragment was found in 26 cases with mean range of knee motion for 92? and mean Iowa knee score for 93 points. Conclusion Combination of lateral buttress plate and medical antiglide plate is a good method for internal fixation of biocondylar tibia plateau fractures,but the conclusion needs large number of clinical verifications.
