ABSTRACT
Objective To sum up the clinical experience of operative management of tibia plateau fracture in senile patients. Methods 35 cases of senile tibia plateau fracture were treated with different ways of internal fixation, including screw, cannulated compression screw, L shaped plate, and T shaped plate. Results All the 35 cases were followed up and the time ranged from 6 months to 2 years. X ray films showed that the anatomical reduction was reached and the fractures healed in 33 cases. The final results were rated according to Merchant criteria excellent in 22 cases, good in 9 cases, fair in 2 cases and poor in 2 cases. The excellent and good rates were 85.7%. Conclusions Operation on senile patients with tibia plateau fracture should be performed early so as to reconstruct the articular surface. Rigid fixation and bone transplantation are impartment means to avoid plateau collapse, and early functional exercise can reduce postoperative complications.
