Tibial Plateau fracture characteristics reliability and diagnostic accuracy
Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2016Co-Authors: Jos J Mellema, Job N Doornberg, Rik J Molenaars, David Ring, Peter KloenAbstract:Objectives:The purpose of this study was to assess the interobserver reliability and diagnostic accuracy for 2-dimensional (2D) and 3-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT)–based evaluation of Tibial Plateau fracture characteristics. We hypothesized that recognition of specific Tibial Plateau fra

Tibial Plateau fracture characteristics computed tomography mapping of lateral medial and bicondylar fractures
Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery American Volume, 2015Co-Authors: Rik J Molenaars, Jos J Mellema, Job N Doornberg, Peter KloenAbstract:Background: Computed tomography (CT) is seen as a useful diagnostic modality in preoperative planning for Tibial Plateau fractures. The purpose of this study was to characterize patterns of Tibial Plateau fractures with use of CT mapping. We hypothesized that CT mapping of fractures of the Tibial Plateau would reveal recurrent patterns of fragments and fracture lines, including patterns that do not fit into Schatzker’s original classification. Methods: One hundred and twenty-seven Tibial Plateau fractures were retrospectively included in this study. Fracture lines and zones of comminution were graphically superimposed onto an axial template of an intact subarticular Tibial Plateau to identify major patterns of fracture and comminution. This fracture map of the Tibial Plateau was subsequently divided into lateral (Schatzker types I, II, and III), medial (Schatzker type IV), and bicondylar (Schatzker types V and VI) fracture maps. Results: This study included seventy-three female and fifty-four male patients (average age, forty-seven years [range, seventeen to ninety-one years]) with a Tibial Plateau fracture. Sixty-four of the fractures were Schatzker type I, II, or III; fifteen were Schatzker type IV; and forty-eight were Schatzker type V or VI. Analysis of the fracture maps suggested patterns in the Schatzker type-IV, V, and VI fractures beyond those described in Schatzker’s original classification. The maps of the 127 fractures revealed four recurrent major fracture features: the lateral split fragment (A), found in 75%; the posteromedial fragment (B), seen in 43%; the Tibial tubercle fragment (C), seen in 16%; and a zone of comminution that included the Tibial spine and frequently extended to the lateral condyle (D), seen in 28%. Conclusions: Tibial Plateau fracture maps show recurrent patterns of fracture lines, revealing four major fracture characteristics. An understanding of these recurrent features of Tibial Plateau fractures can aid surgeons during diagnosis, preoperative planning, and execution of surgical strategies.

Tibial Plateau symmetry and the effect of osteophytosis on Tibial Plateau angle measurements.
Journal of The American Animal Hospital Association, 2007Co-Authors: Matthew John Ritter, Ruby L Perry, N Bari Olivier, Loic M DejardinAbstract:A novel technique was developed to estimate the caudal medial Tibial Plateau landmark in the face of osteophytosis to improve accuracy in Tibial Plateau angle measurements. Using this technique, Tibial Plateau angles were evaluated in 31 normal dogs before and 8 months after right cranial cruciate ligament transection. There was no significant difference in mean Tibial Plateau angle before or after induction of osteophytosis. Additionally, it was determined that 90% of dogs had a difference of =2° between right and left Tibial Plateau angles, which was considered symmetrical.
