VILLALOBOS M, Jaime; GARCIA LINAGE, Rubén y HERNANDEZ MOLINA, Jonathan R. Arthroscopic salvage of lateral meniscus secondary to tibial plateau fracture AO 41B3.1. Acta méd. Grupo Ángeles [online]. 2020, vol.18, n.2, pp.202-205. Epub 28-Mar-2022. ISSN 1870-7203. https://doi.org/10.35366/93898.
Introduction:
Complex fractures of the pelvic limbs, increase annually, within these, are the fractures of the tibial plateau.
Clinical case:
21-year-old male with complex tibial plateau fracture, treated with osteosynthesis under arthroscopic vision, observing as arthroscopic finding, meniscal desinsertion, managed with 8 meniscal sutures in total, for anterior and posterior horn. The tibial fracture was treated with 3.5 mm locking compression plate (LCP) blocked proximal plate and bone graft, 44 post-surgical days, the patient walks without problem with good knee movement.
Conclusions:
Tibial plateau fracture reductions when there’s articular involvement, should be made under arthroscopic surveillance to observe the joint congruence of the meniscus and, where appropriate, perform meniscal rescue.
