EFFECT OF ARTHROSCOPY IN CONJUNCTION WITH MINIMALLY INVASIVE PERCUTANEOUS PLATE OSTEOSYNTHESIS IN THE TREATMENT OF TIBIAL PLATEAU FRACTURE

Objective To study the effect of arthroscopy in conjunction with minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis( MIPPO) in the treatment of tibial plateau fracture. Methods 78 cases of tibial plateau fracture patients admitted during March 2011 and June 2014 were retrospectively analyzed,with 38 cases given the conventional open reduction treatment( group A) and 40 given arthroscopy in conjunction with MIPPO( group B). The clinical efficacy,Rasmussen excellent rate and good rate,and postoperative complications in both groups were then compared. Results The operative time showed no significant difference in both groups( p 0. 05); the time of hospitalization,the length of surgical incision and healing time of group B were significantly better than group A( p 0. 05);after follow- up observation,Rasmussen excellent rate and good rate of group B were significantly higher than group A( p 0. 05). Conclusion Arthroscopic in conjunction with MIPPO has the advantages of smaller surgical wound,faster recovery and fewer complications,and have good efficacy and better clinical value for the treatment of tibial plateau fractures.
