Abstract:
Objective To study the efficacy of fixation with knee arthroscopy as adjuvant therapy for lateral tibial plateau fracture. Methods 72 cases with lateral tibial plateau fracture of our hospital from September 2011 to September 2014 were divided into experimental group (36 cases) and control group (36 cases), according to different operation method, the experimental group using arthroscopic, while the control group using traditional incision surgery. Then the incision length, operative time, hospital stay, wound healing, bone healing time were compared. Complications, knee function and reduction of the fracture were compared. Results The incision length of experimental group was significantly lower than the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05). Operative time, hospital stay, wound healing time, the bone healing time were significantly lower than the control group, the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Delay healing, joint stiffness and traumatic arthritis were significantly lower than the control group, the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). RASMUSSEN function score and radiographic scores in the experimental group were significantly higher than the control group, the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion Fixation with knee arthroscopy as adjuvant therapy for lateral tibial plateau fracture has advantages of smaller incision, shorter operative time and hospital stay and healing time, lower complication rate while better reduction of the fracture and function than conventional methods.
