Clinical effect of modified anterolateral approach in the treatment of posterolateral tibial plateau fracture / 中国综合临床

ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze the surgical method and clinical effect of modified anterolateral approach in the treatment of posterolateral tibial plateau fractures.Methods:From January 2014 to December 2017, 21 patients with posterolateral tibial plateau fractures were treated by the modified anterolateral approach in the second people's Hospital of Tangshan, Hebei Province were retrospectively analyzed.The outpatient department conducted regular reexaminations 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after the operation.Rasmussen radiology score, hospital for special surgery (HSS) score of knee function and Lysholm score were used to evaluate the postoperative knee function, and the score results were statistically analyzed.Results:The Rasmussen radiological score of 21 patients immediately after surgerywas (16.96±1.67), ranging from 15.00 to 18.00, with excellent in 15 cases, good in 6 cases, and the excellent and good rate was 100%.Rasmussen radiology score (16.57±1.51) in the last follow-up, ranging from 15.00 to 18.00, showed no significant difference between the last follow-up and the immediate postoperative ( t=0.935, P>0.05). At the last follow-up, the HSS score of knee joint function was (88.55±7.25), ranging from 80.00 to 9.00.At the last follow-up, Lysholm score (86.64±4.34), ranging from 82.00 to 90.00, was excellent in 15 cases, good in 6 cases, and excellent in 100%. Conclusion:The modified anterolateral approach for the treatment of posterolateral tibial plateau fractures is effective and simple, and can achieve good clinical results.
