ABSTRACT

Objective:To compare the efficacy of the horizontal plate plus raft screws above the acetabulum and fixation with screws only for acetabular fractures combined with dome impaction in the aged patients.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 20 aged patients with acetabular fractures combined with dome impaction, who were admitted to Tianjin hospital between May 2013 and January 2023, including 5 males and 15 females, aged 61-84 years [(72.2±7.3)years]. According to Letournel and Judet classification, 13 patients had anterior column fracture, 5 anterior column fracture combined with posterior transverse fracture and 2 two-column fracture. All the patients underwent open reduction and internal fixation through an anterior approach. Of them, 11 patients were treated with the fixation with the horizonal plate plus raft screws above the acetabulum (plate plus raft screw group) and 9 with the screws only (screw only group). The operative time, intraoperative blood loss, and intraoperative fluoroscopy times were compared between the two groups. The quality of fracture reduction was evaluated with the Matta′s radiographic criteria at 3 days after surgery and the function of the hip joint was assessed with Merle D′Aubigné and Postel scoring system at 3 months after surgery and at the last follow-up as well as the excellent and good rate at te last follow-up. The occurrence of postoperative complications was observed.Results:All the patients were followed up for 6-18 months [(13.1±3.1)months]. There were no significant differences in the operative time, intraoperative blood loss or intraoperative fluoroscopy times between the two groups ( P>0.05). According to the Matta′s radiographic criteria at 3 days after surgery, patients with anatomical reduction and satisfactory reduction accounted 6 and 5 in the plate plus raft screw group, compared to 5 and 4 respectively in the screw only group ( P>0.05). The values of Merle D′Aubigné and Postel score at 3 months after surgery and at the last follow-up were (14.0±2.4)points and (15.8±2.2)points in the plate plus raft screw group, which were higher than those in the screw only group [(11.0±2.6)points and (13.0±3.1)points] ( P<0.01). The values of Merle D′Aubigné and Postel score at the last follow-up of both groups were further enhanced from those at 3 months after surgery ( P<0.01). At the last follow-up, 3 patients were rated excellent, 6 good, 1 fair and 1 poor in the plate plus raft screw group, with an excellent and good rate of 81.8%, while in the screw only group, 3 were rated good, 2 fair and 4 poor, with an excellent and good rate of 33.3% ( P<0.05). One patient in the plate plus raft screw group and 5 in the screw only group had displacement of the dome impaction fragment combined with traumatic arthritis after surgery ( P<0.05). Conclusion:For acetabular fractures combined with dome impaction in the aged patients, the horizontal plate plus raft screw above the acetabulum can effectively improve the function restoration of the hip joint and reduce the occurrence of the displacement of the dome impaction fragment and traumatic arthritis after surgery compared to the fixation with screws only.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the effectiveness and safety of robot-aided percutaneous anterior column screw combined with posterior plate fixtation treatment for transverse acetabular fractures with posterior wall.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 13 patients with transverse acetabular fractures and posterior wall fractures treated by robot-aided percutaneous anterior column screws combined with posterior plate in Tianjin Hospital from May 2016 to May 2021. There were 9 males and 4 females, aged 49.1±8.5 years (range, 25-65 years), 9 cases of vehicle accidents, 2 cases of falling injuries, 2 cases of impact injuries, 7 cases of combined posterior hip dislocations, and 1 case of sciatic nerve injury. Apply Kocher-Langenbeck approach for reduction and fixation of the posterior wall and the posterior column and indirect reduction of the anterior column. Use robot navigation for percutaneous anterior column screw fixation, and record the time of inserting anterior column screws, incision length, and complications. The quality of fracture reduction was evaluated using Matta imaging, and the degree of ectopic ossification was evaluated using Brooker classification. The Matta modified Postel Merle D'Aobigne score was used to evaluate the function at 3, 6 months after surgery and at the last follow-up.Results:All 13 patients successfully completed the surgery. The insertion time of the anterior column screw was 19.4±4.0 min (range, 17-23 min), and the incision length was 8.0±1.4 mm (range, 6-10 mm). Postoperative imaging examination showed that all anterior column screws were located within the bone canal, with a screw length of 108.3±11.2 mm (range, 90-130 mm), and no complications such as nerve or vascular injury or incision infection occurred. All 13 patients were followed up for a period of 12-36 months, with an average of 18.6 months; All fractures healed, with a healing time of 2-6 months, average 3.4 months. According to the Matta imaging evaluation method, 11 of 13 patients had anatomical reduction of fractures, and 2 were evaluated as incomplete reduction due to a 1-2 mm gap in the anterior column. The anatomical reduction rate was 84%. At postoperative 3, 6 months and the last follow-up, the modified Postel Merle D'Aobigne scores were 13.4±1.1, 15.8±1.5, and 17.0±1.7, respectively, with statistically significant differences ( F=7.78, P=0.007). The difference between the last follow-up and postoperative 3 months was statistically significant ( P=0.002), and there was no statistically significant difference compared to postoperative 6 months ( P=0.222). At the last follow-up, 8 cases were excellent, 4 cases were good, and 1 case was fair, with an excellent and good rate of 92%. There was no occurrence of ectopic ossification, traumatic arthritis, or necrosis of the femoral head. Conclusion:Robot-aided percutaneous anterior column screw combined with posterior plate treatment for transverse acetabular fractures with posterior wall is safe and effective, and is worthy of clinical promotion.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the clinical outcome of Robot-assisted sacroiliac screw fixation in the treatment of fragility fracture of the sacrum in the elderly.Methods:From March 2016 to June 2022, a retrospective analysis was performed on 30 patients with fragility fractures of the sacrum in the elderly who accepted robot-assisted sacroiliac screw to treat fragility fractures of the sacrum in our hospital. There were 12 males and 18 females with average age 71.03±8.25 years (range, 60-89 years). According to the classification of fragility fractures of the pelvis (FFP) in the elderly, there were 22 patients with FFP II, 2 patients with FFP III, and 6 patients with FFP IV. Surgical planning was based on the average CT value of S 1 channel and whether there is a transsacral screw channel. Robot-assisted sacroiliac screw fixation was performed during surgery. The pain of pre-operation and post-operation was evaluated using the visual analogue scale (VAS), the position of sacroiliac screws was evaluated by Gras grading, and the degree of functional recovery after surgery was evaluated using the Majeed function score. Results:All 30 patients successfully completed the operation. The mean operation time was 27.00±6.68 min (range, 18-35 min), the mean fluoroscopy times were 27.13±5.16 (range, 18-34), and the mean blood loss was 30.53±6.61 ml (range, 23-38 ml). All patients were followed up, and the mean follow-up time was 19.03±7.8 months (range, 8-25 months). The VAS was 5(5, 6), 4(3, 4), 3(2, 3), 0(0, 1) points before surgery, 1 week, 2 months and 6 months after surgery, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( H=103.26, P<0.001). After the surgery of 2 months, 6 months and the last follow-up time, the Majeed function scores were 88(83, 90), 91(87, 92), 92(90, 93) points, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( H=19.59, P<0.001). Screw position was evaluated according to Gras grading at 3 days after surgery, including 28 cases of level I, 2 cases of level II, and no screw penetrated the cortical bone or entered the sacral canal or sacral foramen. No vascular or nerve injury occured during the operation. 28 patients with FFS met the fracture healing criteria, and the healing time was 4.54±1.57 months (range, 3-7 months). Two patients had bone nonunion, one of whom underwent anterior ring plate removal due to infection of the pelvic anterior wound, and one month later, pelvic CT scan revealed loosening of the sacroiliac screw; the other one is considered to be related to too early weight bearing. Conclusion:For fragility fractures of the sacrum in elderly, Robot-assisted sacroiliac screw is an effective minimally invasive treatment, with high accuracy of screw placement, effective pain reduction, improved fracture healing rate, and achieve the satisfactory clinical efficacy.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To compare the clinical effect of circular external fixator and intramedullary nail in treatment of tibial segmental fractures.Methods:A retrospective case control study was performed on clinical data of 43 patients with segmental tibial fractures treated from January 2006 to December 2012 in Tianjin Hospital. There were 31 males and 12 females with age range of 20-60 years[(35.9±9.6)years]. All fractures were classified as type 42C2 using the AO/OTA classification. A total of 21 patients treated with circular external fixator(circular fixator group)and 22 patients were treated with intramedullary nail(intramedullary nail group). The condition of vascular and neural injuries,methods of fracture reduction,time of full weight bearing,bone healing time and infection rate were compared between the two groups. The proximal tibial medial angle,proximal tibial posterior angle,IOWA knee and ankle joint score,range of motion of flexion of keen joint and range of motion of plantar flexion and dorsal flexion of ankle joint were compared between the two groups at the last follow-up.Results:All patients were followed up for 12- 48 months[(19.6±2.1)months]. There were no vascular and neural injuries or other severe complications in both groups. All 21 patients in circular fixator group underwent closed reduction but 3 patients in intramellary nail group were treated by open reduction. The time of full weight bearing was(12.9±2.8)days and in circular fixator group and(75.1±8.0)days in intramedullary nail group( P<0.05),with bone healing time for(7.0±1.0)months and(8.2±1.4)months,respectively( P<0.05). There was no deep infection in both groups. In circular fixator group and intramedullary nail group,the proximal tibial medial angle was(86.7±1.5)° and(93.5±1.7)°( P<0.05),while the proximal tibial posterior angle was(82.1±1.8)°and(75.1±2.7)°( P<0.05). No significant differences were found between the two groups at the last follow-up concerning IOWA knee and joint score,range of motion of flexion of keen joint and range of motion of plantar flexion of ankle joint( P>0.05). The range of motion of dorsal flexion of ankle joint in intramedullary nail group was(30.9±3.0)°,better than(21.2±2.2)° in circular fixator group( P<0.05). Conclusion:For segmental tibial fractures,cirlular external fixation is superior to intromedullary nail in aspects of completely close reduction,early full weight bearing and early bone healing and alignment.

There were 16 patients in the Robot triangular group, 4 males and 12 females, average age 35.7±13.3 years (range, 16-58 years). There were 10 cases of U-shaped, 4 cases of H-shaped, 2 cases of Y-shaped sacral fractures according to shape classification of sacral fractures. According to ROY-Camille classification, there were 4 cases of type I, 9 cases of type II, 3 cases of type III. There were 13 cases with sacral nerve injuries, including 10 cases of Gibbons grade II, 3 cases of grade III. There were 14 patients in the Lumbopelvic group, 4 males and 10 females, average age 37.4±15.1 years (range, 18-66 years), there were 10 cases of U-shaped, 3 cases of H-shaped, 1 case of Y-shaped sacral fractures according to shape classification of sacral fractures. According to ROY-Camille classification, there were 1 case of type I, 10 cases of type II, 3 cases of type III. There were 10 cases with sacral nerve injuries, 7 cases of Gibbons grade II, 3 cases of grade III. The patients' age, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and Majeed score of the two groups were compared by independent sample t-test; gender, sacral fracture classification, ROY-Camille classification, fracture reduction quality, postoperative wound infection, and sacral nerve recovery were compared by Chi-square test. Results:All patients were followed up for 23.6 months (range, 12-54 months). In the Robot triangular group, the operation time was 95.3±27.5 min (range, 70-180 min), and intraoperative blood loss was 98.7±47.5 ml (range, 50-250 ml). According to Mears and Velyvis imaging evaluation criteria, anatomical reduction was achieved in 6 cases, satisfactory reduction was achieved in 9 cases and unsatisfactory reduction in 1 case. The Majeed score was 85.5±7.7 points. 8 cases of Gibbons grade II sacral nerve injury were recovered to grade I after surgery, 1 case of grade III recovered to grade I, and 1 case recovered to grade II. In the Iliolumbar fixation group, the operation time was 148.6±59.1 min (range, 90-240 min), and intraoperative blood loss was 582.1±244.6 ml (range, 300-1 200 ml). According to Mears and Velyvis imaging evaluation criteria, anatomical reduction was achieved in 7 cases, satisfactory reduction was achieved in 6 case and unsatisfactory in 1 case. The Majeed score was 77.6±7.7 points. 5 of 7 cases of Gibbons grade II sacral nerve injury were recovered to grade I after surgery, and 2 of 3 cases of grade III recovered to grade I.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of MIPO combined with non-contact bridging periprosthesis fracture plate (NCB.PP) in the treatment of re-fracture around the nail after intramedullary fixation of intertrochanteric fracture.Methods:From October 2015 to January 2020, 12 patients with re-fracture around the nail after intramedullary fixation of intertrochanteric fracture were treated in our hospital. There were 7 males and 5 females with an average age of 74.88±12.1 years (range, 65-83 years old); 8 patients on the left side and 4 patients on the right side received short nail of proximal femoral nail (PFN), 6-36 months after operation, they fell down and caused closed fracture around the nail body. According to Vancouver classification system, all the patients were Vancouver type B; preoperative bone mineral density examination showed that 1 case had normal bone mass, 10 cases had osteoporosis, and 1 case had low bone mass. All patients were treated with minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) technique for reduction and fixation, and fixed with proximal femur NCB.PP. The visual analogue scale (VAS) and Harris hip score at 1 day, 3 months and the last follow-up were compared.Results:The average operation time was 68.7±4.33 min (range, 65-75 min); the average intraoperative blood loss was 291.67±114.48 ml (range, 150-400 ml); the average postoperative drainage volume was 79.17±17.17 ml (range, 50-100 ml). After fracture reduction, all patients were able to obtain 2-5 bicortical screws fixation, with an average of 3.25±0.96. Among them, 3 cases were fixed with additional binding straps; 3 cases underwent autologous iliac bone grafting during the operation. All cases were followed up for 9-60 months, with an average of 16 months. At the last follow-up, 10 patients had fracture healing, the healing time was 7.75±2.83 months (range, 4-13 months), and the fracture healing rate was 83.3% (10/12). Among the other two patients, one was an 83 years old patient with severe osteoporosis, who was bedridden after operation and remained unhealed after 12 months of follow-up; a 68 years old patient had bone restoration at the broken end of the fracture 6 months after operation. The second operation was performed. Iliac combined with allogeneic bone graft was taken from the broken end. At the end of 13 months after operation, the fracture was partially healed. The VAS at one week, three months and the last follow-up were 8.00 (8.00, 9.00), 2.50 (2.00, 3.00) and 0.00 (0.00, 0.75), respectively. There were significant differences in VAS scores between 1 week after operation and 3 months after operation, 1 week after operation and the last follow-up, and 3 months after operation and the last follow-up ( Z=-3.129, -3.097, -3.134, all P < 0.05). The Harris scores at 3 months after operation and at the last follow-up were 72.50±2.91 and 86.67±5.30 respectively. After statistical analysis, the difference was statistically significant ( t=8.857, P< 0.001). At the last follow-up, except for 1 case of fracture nonunion and 1 case of reoperation, the Harris score of hip joint of the other 10 patients was excellent in 6 cases and good in 4 cases, and the excellent and good rate was 83.3% (10/12). One case of superficial wound infection was healed by intravenous drip of sensitive antibiotics. One patient had incision fat liquefaction and was given local dressing change to heal the incision. Conclusion:MIPO combined proximal femoral NCB.PP in the treatment of re-fracture around the nail after intramedullary fixation of intertrochanteric fracture has the advantage of less surgical damage, less blood loss, higher healing rate, and it can obtain satisfactory short and medium-term clinical efficacy.

There were 2 cases of type B1, 20 cases of B2, 8 cases of C1 pelvic fractures, 4 cases combined with sacral nerve injuries including 3 cases of Gibbons grade II and 1 case of grade III. The patients’ age, operation time, amount of bleeding, times of fluoroscopy, postoperative Majeed score were compared by the independent t test. The quality of fracture reduction was compared by Chi-square test, and the postoperative Gibbons grade was compared by the rank sum test.Results:All patients were followed up for 22.8 months (range, 12-40 months). In the Iliac screw rod group, the operation time was 41.40±7.30 min, intraoperative blood loss 105.00±61.94 ml, intraoperative times of fluoroscopy 19.10±7.33, and according to Mears and Velyvis valuation criterion, there were 9 cases of anatomical reduction, 10 cases of satisfactory reduction, and 1 case of unsatisfactory reduction, with the Majeed score of 84.25±8.29. There were 3 cases with Gibbons grade II sacral nerve injury, and 2 of them recovered to grade I. In the Iliosacral screw group, the operation time was 18.27±5.89 min, intraoperative blood loss 33.00±17.54 ml, intraoperative times of fluoroscopy 14.93±4.49, and according to Mears and Velyvis valuation criterion, there were 15 cases of anatomical reduction, 13 cases of satisfactory reduction and 2 cases of unsatisfactory reduction, with the Majeed score of 86.43±7.43. There were 3 cases with Gibbons grade II sacral nerve injury, and 2 of them recovered to grade I, and 1 case with grade III recovered to grade II postoperation. Compared to Iliosacral screw group, the Iliac screw rod group has longer operation time ( t=-12.36, P<0.001), more blood loss ( t=-6.04, P<0.001) and more intraoperative times of fluoroscopy ( t=-2.50, P=0.016). There were no statistical differences for quality of fracture reduction ( χ2=0.23, P=0.89), Majeed score ( t=0.97, P=0.34), and the Gibbons grade ( Z=-0.224, P=0.82) between the two groups. In the Iliac screw rod group, 1 patient had a unilateral superficial wound infection and 1 patient complained of discomfort because of the nail. In the Iliosacral screw group 1 patient had iatrogenic S 1 neurological injury. Conclusion:For the unstable sacral fractures, who are not suitable for iliosacral screw fixation, posterior iliac screw rod fixation is an effective alternative with similar clinical effect as robot assisted iliosacral screw fixation.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To explore the treatment outcome of triangular osteosynthesis (TOS) for the treatment of unilateral Isler type II lumbosacral junction injuries (LSJIs).@*Methods@#Data of sixteen patients with unilateral Isler type II LSJIs surgically who were treated in our Hospital from March 2015 to February 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 13 males and 3 females with an average age of 35.5 years (range, 24-61 years). Seven patients were multiple injuries including head, thoracic, musculoskeletal and nerve injuries. According to Isler classification of LSJIs, there were 5 cases of type IIa, 9 of type IIb and 2 of type IIc. All the LSJIs combined with ipsilateral sacral fractures. The sacral fractures were classified by Denis classification with 1 case of zone I, 13 cases of zone II and 2 cases of zone III. According to Tile classification of pelvic fractures, there were 3 cases of type B2, 11 of type C1 and 2 of type C3. There were 3 cases combined with sacral nerve injury among which there were 2 cases of grade II and 1 case of grade III according to Gibbons classification of neurologic deficits. All cases were surgically treated with triangular osteosynthesis. There were 14 cases combined with iliosacral screws fixation in S1 and 2 cases combined with posterior locking plates.@*Results@#All patients were followed up for 20.6 months (range, 16-30 months). CT scan was conducted 12 to 24 months after surgery which showed all the sacral fractures were union, and 2 cases achieved bony fusion in L5S1 facets while the other 14 didn’t. According to Majeed’s pelvic injury evaluation, clinical outcomes were rated with excellent in 12 cases, good in 2 cases, fair in 2 cases. The excellent and good rate was 87.5% (14/16) . According to Mears-Velyvis evaluation criterion, there were 14 cases with anatomical reduction and 2 cases with satisfactory reduction. Among the 3 cases with sacral nerve injury, 2 cases were improved from Gibbons grade II to grade I and the other 1 case was improved from Gibbons grade III to grade II, still feeling numbness on the lateral foot. There were no intraoperative complications in all patients such as neurovascular injuries. No incision infection, fat liquefaction and other incision related complications occurred postoperatively. Irritation and pain in iliac spine about prominent implant occurred in 1 case and lumboscaral stiffness in 1 case, in which the symptom relieved and disappeared after implants removal.@*Conclusion@#Triangular osteosynthesis can provide enough stabilization for Isler type II LSJIs and achieve satisfactory outcomes.

ABSTRACT

[Objective]To explore the operative techniques of open reduction and internal fixation of displaced radial head fractures in adults. [Methods]Twenty-six cases of radial head fractures had been treated with open reduction and internal fixation. According to Mason classification, 16 fractures were type II, 6 were type III and 4 were type IV. Operative exposures of radial head were performed through the Kocher approach in 22 cases, and through a midline posterior skin incision in 4 cases in order to repair concomitant fracture of proximal ulna. After being reduced, fractures of radial head were fixed with mini-fragment plate and screw which were placed in "safe zone" not to impinge on the proximal radioulnar joint with forearm rotation.[Results]At a mean follow-up of 32 months, all fractures had united. There was no patient who suffered from wound infection or injury to posterior interosseous nerve. According to the Broberg and Morrey functional elbow index, the outcome were excellent in 17 patients, good in 9.[Conclusion]Open reduction and internal fixation of displaced radial head fractures may get satisfying outcomes, with successful performing of the requirements below: (1) sustaining lateral ulnar collateral ligament; (2) avoiding injury to posterior inerosseous nerve; (3) getting anatomic reduction; (4) stably fixing fractures without impinging on joint.

ABSTRACT

[Objective]To explore the technique and results of reverse less invasive stabilization system(LISS) plating for subtrochanteric femur fractures.[Method]From October 2007 to May 2009,31 cases of fresh subtrochanteric femur fractures were treated with reverse LISS. There were 23 males and 8 females,with an average age of 48.6 years (range 27 to 83 years). Twelve injuries were the result of a traffic accident,six,a fall from a greater height,four,a crush injury and nine,a fall from a standing height. According to Seinsheimer classification,four fractures were type ⅡC,twelve ⅢA,six ⅢB,six Ⅳ and three Ⅴ. After anesthesia was effectively administered,subtrochanteric fracture was reduced indirectly with patient on a fracture table. Then,the reverse LISS plate was inserted through a lateral incision of the greater trochanter between the lateral vastus muscle and the periosteum. Guided by the aiming arm,4 to 5 screws were inserted through stab incisions into the proximal and distal fragments,respectively. [Result]Operative time averaged 50 minutes (range,35-80 minutes) and estimated blood loss averaged 90 ml(range,60-150 ml). Thirty-one patients were available for evaluation with an average follow-up of 15.6 months. All fractures healed at a mean of 18.2 weeks (range 13 to 32 weeks). There was no failed fixation,or deep infection. Average range of motion of the hip joint was recorded as follows:flexion 115?,external rotation 35?,internal rotation 15?,adduction 15?,and abduction 36?. According to the modified Harris hip score,scores ranged from 82 to 100 (average,92.6),and there were 24 excellent and 7 good results.[Conclusion]Reverse LISS plating yields good results in subtrochanteric femur fractures,with stable fixation and minimal invasive procedure.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the efficacy of closed reduction and inter na l fixation of cannulated screws by minimally invasive procedure in management of tibial plateau fractures. Methods From October 1999 to January 2002, 42 patient s with tibial plateau fractures, which were 29 males and 13 females with an aver age age of 41 years ranging from 26 to 67 years, were treated surgically in our hospital. According to Schatzker system, the fractures were diagnosed as type Ⅰ in 9, type Ⅱ in 5, type Ⅲ in 13, type Ⅳ in 3, type Ⅴ in 6 and type Ⅵ in 6. There was open fracture in 5, and closed fracture in 37. The fracture fragments of tibial plateau were reduced with closed manipulation or reduced assisted by minimally invasive procedure. The later by minimally invasive procedure included two kinds of reductions, one of which was reduction assisted by Kirschner pin t hat was introduced percutaneously into the larger fragment; the other was reduct ion assisted by a bone tamper that was introduced through a small incision into the cortical window beneath the depressed articular surface. Fixation was achiev ed using percutaneous 6.5 mm cannulated screws or combination of the cannulated screws and Bastiani external frame in unstable fractures. Results Of 42 patients , 37 were followed up from 6 to 30 months (average, 15 months). All 37 fractures were united within 12 weeks postoperatively. The mechanical axis of affected li mb and the stability of affected knee joint were restored in the patients. Accor ding to Sanders score for functional results of knee joint, 13 patients were rat ed as excellent, 20 good, and 4 fair. Anatomical reduction was identified while the stepping of articular surface after reduction was less than 2 mm. In 21 pati ents with anatomical reduction, the functional results were excellent in 8, good in 11, and fair in 2. However, in 16 patients without anatomical reduction, the functional results were excellent in 5, good in 9, and fair in 2. There was sig nificant difference between the two groups on functional results. There were no postoperative complications such as infections and neurovascular bundle. Conclus ion Closed reduction and fixation through minimally invasive procedure has provi ded satisfied results in tibial plateau fractures such as less complications, ex cellent mechanical axis restoration, and ideal functional recovery.
