Abstract:
[Objective]To discuss the clinical outcomes of low-energy tibial plateau fractures treated with arthroscopy-assisted operative management and locked by LCP.[Method]From January 2006 to March 2007,15 patients with tibial plateau fractures(SchatzkerⅠ,Ⅱ)were reduced with arthroscopy-assisted and treated by LCP and bone defects were filled with homogeneous allograft bone.[Result]With follow-up visits for 12～26 months,all cases were healed.According to creiteria of Rasmussen,excellent were in 10 cases,good in 4 cases,fair in 1 case,with the rate of being excellent and good added up to 93%.[Conclusion]LCP fixation is an effective technique for the low-energy tibial plateau fractures treatment with the advantage of less invasion,steadier fixation and lower complication rate.Arthroscopy-assisted operative management can help to reduce reduction loss from intra-articular more precisely to reach a higher union rate.It is also a preferable method for low-energy tibial plateau fracutures treatment(SchatzkerⅠ、Ⅱ).
