Abstract

Abstract : Summary: Tibial plateau fractures can involve planes that require reduction and stabilization from a posterior approach. This includes posteromedial, posterolateral, and posterior column shear type injuries. This video outlines the prone posteromedial approach to the tibial plateau for posterior column fracture exposure, reduction, and fixation.
