Large fracture of the anteromedial tibial plateau with isolated posterolateral knee corner injury: case series of an often missed unusual injury pattern.
Injury 2016 September
Tibial plateau fractures are a heterogeneous group of lesions with multiple fracture patterns. They are often associated with soft tissue injuries, the lateral meniscus and the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) being the most common structures affected. The purpose of this article is to present a case series of an often missed unusual injury pattern that consists on the association of a large anteromedial tibial plateau fracture with a posterolateral (PL) knee corner injury without involvement of the cruciate ligaments. The diagnosis of PL complex injury may go unrecognized in a considerable number of cases and delay on the treatment decreases the success rate of soft tissue repairing. The importance of a high index of suspicion and a proper early diagnosis with an MRI is of paramount importance. We also describe the current surgical management used by the authors and review of the current literature.
