Abstract:

Conclusion: Tibial plateau fractures are increasing due to increase in road traffic accidents. Fracture pattern and soft tissue status should be analyzed before surgery. These fracture require perfect anatomical reconstruction of articular surface, stable fixation, early ROM physiotherapy, and rehabilitation for good functional outcome. We conclude that laterally based locking condylar plate gives excellent functional and anatomical results without the need for additional medial stabilization as it restore articular surface with better biomechanical stability, increases range of motion, decreases complications like infections, non-union and provides early rehabilitation.
