Abstract
The posteromedial fracture of the tibial plateau is relatively rare and few studies have concentrated on it so far. The purpose of this study was to review the results of surgical treatment of this type of fracture using a posteromedial approach. The clinical results of a series of 6 patients, collected prospectively, were presented here. At the last follow-up, there were no cases of infection, intraoperative vascular nerve damage, internal fixation loose or breakage, disunion, deformity of the varus / valgus of the knee or re-displacement of the fracture. 4 cases were rated as excellent, 1 as good, 1 as fair, and 0 as poor according to the Rasmussen functional score system. All patients were satisfied with the surgical results.
