Abstract: Tibial plateau fracture treatment remains challenging for orthopaedic surgeons around the world, especially in case of type III fractures according to the Schatzker classification, which are a pure depression of the lateral tibial plateau. more common in type IV and VI fractures (25%) compartment syndrome. Setting: Fifty-seven complex (Schatzker Type VI) fractures of the tibial plateau were treated with circular wire external fixation at a Level 1 trauma center. There were 4 cases of type I fracture, 12 type II, 9 type III, 12 type IV and 2 type V according to Schatzker criteria. But biplanar analysis of these fractures has been demonstrated to be insufficient to identify the fracture pattern and to guide treatment strategy. Patients with bilateral tibial plateau fracture, those with an associated ipsilateral femoral fracture, and those lost to follow-up were excluded from the study. The fracture healing time for the Schatzker type II group receiving the extended anterolateral approach was 12 to 17 weeks, with an average of 15.81 ± 2.73 weeks. X-ray examination revealed 2 large fragments and several small fragments. [Medline] . the metaphysis and diaphysis regions. The Chin J Traumatol . Temporary external fixation was considered in patients with multiple injuries including suspicious neurovascular injury and severe swelling accompanied by angulation and/or shortening. In this study, we aim to evaluate the articular surface reduction quality by means of postoperative computer tomography (CT) in Schatzker type II-VI tibial plateau fractures treated with an Ilizarov frame. Chin J Traumatol . Thirteen patients received an operation with use of a single plate or screw fixation and the remaining 10 patients with use of a midline longitudinal incision on the anterior knee and dual-plate fixation. Schatzker classification is the … Type 6 fractures were more prone to be open rather than closed. Schatzker system, the Schatzker system is not able to indicate if a posterior approach would be necessary [20]. Materials and methods This case series study included 45 patients … Tibial plateau depression is measured as the vertical distance between the … The total number of Schatzker type V and VI tibial plateau fractures was 23 between September 2007 and June 2010. Schatzker Classification is currently most accepted classification system for tibial plateau fractures used all over the world [3, 4]. Schatzker type II tibial plateau fractures are the most common type of tibial plateau fracture and necessarily involve a metaphyseal split in osteoarthritis [2]. 2 reported in his study that out of 2440 reported tibial plateau fractures there were only reported 41 cases of Schatzker type VI fractures. [Medline] . Our study includes Schatzker's type 5 and 6 proximal tibial fractures treated by open reduction and internal fixation by proximal tibial lateral locking plate. tear. An OTA 41-B3 (Schatzker type II) split-depression fracture was created in all specimens using a standardized … the metaphysis and diaphysis regions. Then the plateau fractures with the displacement over 3 mm or more were reduced and fixed. Type I fractures can be fixed with two transverse cancellous screws. 2008 Oct. 11 (5):288-92. CONCLUSIONS: As an adjuvant treatment of intraarticular fractures such as tibial plateau fracture, arthroscopy has many advantages. Conclusions: Arthroscopic treatment for Schatzker type IV tibial plateau fractures combined with MIPPO can simultaneously treat internal structural injuries such as meniscus and other knee joints, with less trauma, fewer complications, and faster joint function recovery, but we must strictly grasp surgical indications and avoid expanding injuries. Schatzker classification system is one method of classifying tibial plateau fractures.. Increase in type number denotes increasing severity, reflecting an increase in energy imparted to the bone at the time of injury and also an increasingly worse prognosis 1.The most common fracture of the tibial plateau is type II. Tibial plateau fracture treatment remains challenging for orthopaedic surgeons around the world, especially in case of type III fractures according to the Schatzker classification, which are a pure depression of the lateral tibial plateau. But they can also be treated with ring external fixators and minimal osteosynthesis (EFMO). The aim of the present study was to report the treatment of type VI Schatzker tibial plateau fractures meniscal injury. a lateral split depression type fracture of the tibial plateau (Schatzker type ), mostly in the anterior portion with a vertical split (Figures and ). A Schatzker type II fracture is a combined cleavage and compression fracture of the lateral tibial plateau, a type I fracture with a depressed component. Depression may not be appreciated on plain radiographs, and type II fractures may look like type I fractures (,Fig 3,,). Methods: Level III evidence. In complete/complex articular fractures (AO/OTA 41 C1,C2,C3/ Schatzker IV,V,VI) open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) treatment is the gold standard. Isolated posterolateral corner (PLC) injuries are rarely seen with tibial plateau fractures and can be missed during the initial assessment. most commonly associated with Schatzker IV fractures . To determine the effectiveness of circular wire external fixation in the treatment of complex (Schatzker Type VI) fractures of the tibial plateau. Type 2. There were 2 cases of Schatzker type V fractures and 8 cases of Schatzker type VI fractures, 2 of which were open fractures. Objective: To first describe the treatment of type VI Schatzker tibial plateau fractures with a newly proposed technique, through supra-patellar approach utilizing intramedullary nailing and hollow screws. Various surgical approaches and fixation techniques have been developed to treat Schatzker type V and VI fractures. The preferred surgical approaches have been the anterolateral single incision and anteromedial/posterolateral bilateral incisions for easier reduction of fractures and better wound healing2-8). 1. Lateral plateau cleavage combined with depression. Methods: Six matched pairs of cadaveric knees were acquired. Schatzker classification system is one method of classifying tibial plateau fractures.. Increase in type number denotes increasing severity, reflecting an increase in energy imparted to the bone at the time of injury and also an increasingly worse prognosis 1.The most common fracture of the tibial plateau is type II. According to the ACL injuries. 2. It can treat associated intraarticular soft tissue components, visualize the chondral surface reduction, lavage the hematoma and smaller loose fragments, decrease soft tissue dissection, reduce the risk of scarring and promote rapid recovery. These findings are suggestive of a depressed fracture of the lateral tibial plateau, a Schatzker type A Schatzker type II fracture is a combined cleavage and compression fracture of the lateral tibial plateau, a type I fracture with a depressed component. Are frequent between 30 and 50 years of age, complications were present in 37.5 % of patients these are frequent due to the high energy mechanisms involved in this type of fracture. Patients with a Schatzker type 2 or 3 tibial plateau fracture (compression with or without split) demonstrated on CT-scan and located in the lateral or medial condyle of tibia. Comparison of cannulated lag screws and lateral locking plate in the treatment of Schatzker type II tibial plateau fractures Joint Diseases and Related Surgery, 2020 Osman Emre Aycan The fracture healing time for the Schatzker type V/VI group receiving the extended anterolateral and medial approach was 13 to 19 weeks, with an average of 16.83 ± 3.53 weeks. 22-year-old male presented with a comminuted Schatzker type II fracture of right leg. Thus, L is used for lateral tib- have been described as extraarticular bicondy- ial plateau fractures, which are divided addi- lar fractures (Type 5A) by Schatzker et al,23 tionally into five subgroups L1 through L5. Schatzker type II-VI tibial plateau fractures may be treated successfully with mini-open reduction and the application of an Ilizarov frame. ACL injuries. Schatzker type of fracture. Treatment Using an anterolateral approach, the lateral fragment was rotated to open the fracture, fragments elevated and held with temporary K-wires. Introduction Tibial plateau fractures are more common in young patients following high-energy trauma. Patient Group. The increase of articular surface impaction by 1 … osteoarthritis [2]. Design: Retrospective case series. In Schatzker type IV medial tibial plateau fractures, the involvement of posterolateral quadrants is common. Lateral plateau cleavage … Objective: To introduce a surgical protocol based on the location and orientation of the apex of the medial condylar fracture line for the treatment of Schatzker type Ⅳ tibial plateau fractures and report the preliminary effectiveness. presence of complex Schatzker type II-VI intra-articular proximal tibia fractures, patient age over 18 years, and the ability to walk without assistance before injury. In this study, we aim to evaluate the articular surface reduction quality by means of postoperative computer tomography (CT) in Schatzker type II-VI tibial plateau fractures treated with an Ilizarov frame. Whereas open surgical procedures are associated with increased soft-tissue trauma because of the extent of the surgical approach and … wire fixation, and percutaneous reduction.2-4 In Schatzker type III tibia plateau fractures, exploration of the fracture site is challenging because the lateral plateau is not displaced. Schatzker I: wedge-shaped pure cleavage fracture of the lateral tibial plateau, originally defined as having less than 4 mm of depression or displacement Schatzker II: splitting and depression of the lateral tibial plateau; namely, type I fracture with a depressed component Both 41B and C have different sub-types according to fragment morphology and comminution. Then the plateau fractures with the displacement over 3 mm or more were reduced and fixed. 2 reported in his study that out of 2440 reported tibial plateau fractures there were only reported 41 cases of Schatzker type VI fractures. Treatment of a Schatzker type VI fracture with either a plate (for a transverse shaft fracture) or a plate and a 2-pin ex-fix (for an oblique shaft fracture). The objective of this paper is to present a case of a Schatzker type 2 tibial plateau fracture with associated isolated PLC injury and give a discussion on physical exam, diagnostic studies, and treatment options. Duan XJ, Yang L, Guo L, Chen GX, Dai G. Arthroscopically assisted treatment for Schatzker type I-V tibial plateau fractures. Patients with fractures 10 days old maximum. [33] by categorizing fractures by their articular exit point relative to the tibial spine, because considering the injuries in this way may help Finally, the internal fixation was observed by X-ray equipment. There were 4 cases of type I fracture, 12 type II, 9 type III, 12 type IV and 2 type V according to Schatzker criteria. The objective of this paper is to present a case of a Schatzker type 2 tibial plateau fracture with associated isolated PLC injury and give a discussion on physical exam, diagnostic studies, and treatment options. Introduction: The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of circular external fixation (CEF) as a definitive treatment option for patients with complex tibial plateau fractures (Schatzker VI) compared with the outcomes of a fixed angle locking plates' group. (A) The initial radiographs showed a severe comminuted fracture of the proximal tibia and fibula. May include tibial spines. Type II Fracture A Schatzker type II fracture is a combined cleav-age and compression fracture of the lateral tibial plateau, a type I fracture with a depressed combined with axial loading on the knee and therefore may be associated with a distraction- The total number of Schatzker type V and VI tibial plateau fractures was 23 between September 2007 and June 2010. Patient Group. Lateral plateau pure cleavage fracture. Depression may not be appreciated on plain radiographs, and type II fractures may look like type I fractures (, Fig 3,,). This relation was also found to be significant. Schatzker type II tibial plateau fractures are the most common type of tibial plateau fracture and necessarily involve a metaphyseal split in Lateral plateau pure cleavage fracture. Agnew et al. Case report 1 (case no. A Schatzker type III fracture is a pure compression fracture of the lateral tibial plateau in which the articular surface of the tibial plateau is depressed and driven into the lateral tibial metaphysis by axial forces. The spanning external fixator is used to allow the soft 22-year-old male presented with a comminuted Schatzker type II fracture of right leg. Patients: To summarize the surgical technique and clinical effects of the extended anterolateral approach for the treatment of Schatzker type II and Schatzker type V/VI involving the posterolateral column tibial plateau.From January 2015 through December 2018, 28 patients with tibial plateau fractures involving the posterolateral column were included in the study. Also, type 5 fractures could be mobilized immediately, whereas all fractures mobilized within 1week/2 weeks or 4weeks were type 6. (a, b) Posteroante- rior (a) and lateral (b) radiographs show ill-defined increased opacity at the subarticular lateral tibial plateau and a large joint effusion. Patients with fractures caused by trauma. First, most of them require drilling a canal in the proximal tibia and using a K-wire, a bone tamp, or an inflatable balloon for fracture reduction and correction of the articular depression of the posterolateral tibial plateau.3, 6, 7, 8 This technique makes the fracture reduction possible only when the special anterior cruciate ligament aiming guide is available and has a risk of … The outcome Nonarticular bicondylar fractures tures in a group. - "Treatment of Schatzker Type V and VI Tibial Plateau Fractures Using a Midline Longitudinal … •Identify common fracture patterns •Apply treatment principles and strategies •Partial articular fractures •Complete articular fractures •Discuss rehabilitation, complications, and ... • Schatzker • Type I: Split fracture of the lateral plateau • Type II: Split depression fracture of the lateral plateau Type II Fracture. Based on the type of fracture, there are various methods of treatment ranging from conservative, external fixation and open reduction internal fixation. The common standard treatment is dual-plate fixation through two incisions; however, the skin complication and infection rate are relatively high [3-6]. X-ray examination revealed 2 large fragments and several small fragments. A twenty-five-year-old female sustained a concomitant Schatzker type 2 fracture and PLC injury. The tibial plateau fractures account for 1 % of all fractures. Introduction Tibial plateau fractures are more common in young patients following high-energy trauma. most commonly associated with Schatzker IV fractures . In Schatzker Type IV fracture, at 6 months follow-up the evaluation was Grade A in 32.1%, Grade B in 46.4% patients while 21.4% had Grade C. In Schatzker Type V fracture, final evaluation at 6 months follow-up was 33.3% in Grade A & B, while 27.8% had Grade C. All patients with Type VI Schatzker Type fracture For higher-energy injuries with a compromised soft-tissue envelope, we prefer to use a temporary spanning external fixator. Firstly, the combined injuries were treated. Methods: Six matched pairs of cadaveric knees were acquired. Isolated posterolateral corner (PLC) injuries are rarely seen with tibial plateau fractures and can be missed during the initial assessment. Type 2. The rarity of this type of fracture has caused very limited documentation of the treatment. Firstly, the combined injuries were treated. 8 in Table 1). Lateral plateau pure central depression. Duan XJ, Yang L, Guo L, Chen GX, Dai G. Arthroscopically assisted treatment for Schatzker type I-V tibial plateau fractures. Treatment Using an anterolateral approach, the lateral fragment was rotated to open the fracture, fragments elevated and held with temporary K-wires. Fig. Key words: Approaches; Posterolateral column; Surgical treatment; Tibial plateau fracture Introduction Lateral tibial plateau fractures are common fracture types in tibial plateau fractures, belonging to the Schatzker type I, II, and III fractures, of which 50.4% involve the pos-terolateral aspect of the lateral platform1. (B) The postoperative radiographs at the seventh postoperative day showed fixation by dual plating on the medial and lateral sides. Table 4, the Schatzker type had a significant correlation with the nature of the fracture. Computed tomography–based reconstruction enhances the understanding of fracture anatomy and the relationships between fracture fragments. RG Volume 29 • Number 2 Markhardt et al 589 Figure 5. The treatment of Schatzker type V and VI tibial plateau fractures with a midline longitudinal incision and dual-plate fixation resulted in satisfactory clinical and radiological outcomes. This can be an option when treating Schatzker type V and VI tibial plateau fractures. ... anteromedial + posteromedial fractures = 2-column fracture. Type IIIA fracture in a 31-year-old woman who was in a motor vehicle accident. type, the more difficult the choice of treatment about the ideal type of fixation. Type IV fractures, or medial plateau fractures, were further classified by Wahlquist et al. Clinical Presentation and Intervention: We report a case of a 46-year-old male who sustained a closed fracture of the left tibial plateau and proximal fibula. Type 1. Upon application of a knee brace in the emergency department, obvious posterolateral instability was noted. •Identify common fracture patterns •Apply treatment principles and strategies •Partial articular fractures •Complete articular fractures •Discuss rehabilitation, complications, and ... • Schatzker • Type I: Split fracture of the lateral plateau • Type II: Split depression fracture of the lateral plateau The objective of this paper is to present a case of a Schatzker type 2 tibial plateau fracture with associated isolated PLC injury and give a discussion on physical exam, diagnostic studies, and treatment options. 1. Treatment goals of high-energy tibial plateau fractures are to restore the joint stability, congruity, and alignment with minimal soft tissue dissection to allow early joint motion and weight bearing. Objectives: To compare the strength of fixation of percutaneous screw versus plate/screw fixation in a paired cadaver model of OTA 41-B3 (Schatzker type II) split-depression fractures of the lateral tibial plateau. Schatzker Classification is currently most accepted classification system for tibial plateau fractures used all over the world [3, 4]. Type IV fractures, or medial plateau fractures, were further classified by Wahlquist et al. Arthroscopic reduction and internal fixation are recommended as a safe and reliable method for treatment of tibia plateau Inclusion criteria were: (1) age 18 years or older, (2) bicondylar tibial plateau fracture (AO/OTA 41-C or Schatzker VI), (3) treatment with ORIF, and (4) minimum of 6 months follow-up. Ilizarov external fixator with knee bridging and mini-open reduction as a definitive treatment option for Schatzker type II-VI tibial plateau fractures provides adequate stabilization and restores articular surface and mechanical axis without compromising the soft tissue envelope. Objectives: To compare the strength of fixation of percutaneous screw versus plate/screw fixation in a paired cadaver model of OTA 41-B3 (Schatzker type II) split-depression fractures of the lateral tibial plateau. Schatzker system, the Schatzker system is not able to indicate if a posterior approach would be necessary [20]. 2008 Oct. 11 (5):288-92. Thirteen patients received an operation with use of a single plate or screw fixation and the remaining 10 patients with use of a midline longitudinal incision on the anterior knee and dual-plate fixation. Medial plateau fractures, either split or depressed. Agnew et al. Understand and accept the constraints of the study. Patients between 50 and 65 years of age were excluded. Type 3. Type 1. Type 4. Abstract. bicondylar type (Schatzker type V) and the comminuted type (Schatzker type VI) fractures being the most difficult to treat. Schatzker Type I-II-III-IV should correspond to 41B fractures and Type V-VI to 41C fractures. An OTA 41-B3 (Schatzker type II) split-depression fracture was created in all specimens using a standardized … [33] by categorizing fractures by their articular exit point relative to the tibial spine, because considering the injuries in this way may help The isolated unicondylar posteromedial split fracture was uncommon (2 cases, 5%).
