Abstract
The management of tibial plateau fractures has remained a controversy with a variety of procedures described in this prospective study conducted at Dept. of Orthopaedics, D. Y. Patil Medical College &Hospital, Kolhapur from May 2014 to November 2015. We studied 15 cases of tibial condylar fractures. They were classified according to Schatzker system and underwent management by LCP, reconstruction plates, Buttress plate or screws. The results with each operative modality were compared. We have found the locking compression plating to be superior to others.
