Abstract

Introduction: The purpose of this study is to assess the outcome of plate fixation in proximal tibia fracture through minimally invasive percutaneous osteosynthesis technique in tertiary care centre. Materials and Methodology: This study included, 38 men and 7 women aged 19 to 75 (mean, 40; standard deviation [SD], 14) years underwent Minimal Invasive Percutaneous Osteosynthesis (MIPO) for the displaced tibia plateau fractures. Fracture was classified according to Schatzker system. Patient was assessed on the basis of the Rasmussen anatomic score and the Rasmussen functional score. Patients with acceptable and unacceptable outcomes were compared in terms of age using the Chi squared test or Fisher’s exact test.
