Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Tibial plateau fractures are complex injuries produced by high- or low-energy trauma. Limb alignment, knee stability, articular surface restoration with adequate soft tissue healing allowing early functional range of knee motion are the main goals of the treatment. To analyse the functional outcome of proximal tibial plateau fractures and theOBJECTIVES: various modalities of treatment and complications. The present prospective study was conducted in theMATERIALS AND METHODS: department of orthopedics at Gandhi Medical College from November 2019 to June 2021.RESULTS: In spite of all the complex fracture patterns and soft tissue injuries and complications with proximal tibial fractures, the outcome was excellent in 22.50% of the study population and good results in 57.50% of the study population (overall 80% satisfactory results) with described standard xation methods. In addition we have 20% fair and 0% poor results. Treatment of intra articular tibial plateau fractures is still unresolved completely. Choice of theCONCLUSION: approach/implant should be strictly based on the good clinical judgment of fracture pattern, appropriate classication( Schatzker /three column concept) , bone quality and intra operative fracture reduction.
