Does surgical management with dual plating improve clinical and functional outcomes in patients with bicondylar tibial plateau fractures?
Surgical management of bicondylar tibial plateau fractures with dual plating provides excellent anatomic reduction and functional outcomes.
J et al. (2019) conducted a cohort in Bicondylar Tibial plateau fractures (Schatzker type V and VI) (n=30). Dual plating and dual incision was evaluated on Excellent clinical outcome according to Honkonen Jarvinen Criteria. Surgical management of bicondylar tibial plateau fractures with dual plating yielded 86% excellent clinical outcomes and 81% excellent functional outcomes at one year.
