Figure 2 A 43-year-old women with left-sided tibial plateau fractures after a fall (Schatzker V). (A, B) X-ray and CT scan indicated the posterolateral fracture of the tibial plateau and fibular neck fracture. (C) Operative position (lateral position). (D) The common peroneal nerve was carefully identified and protected. (E) The articular surface and posterolateral tibial plateau fracture were fully visualized. (F) A 3.5-mm lateral proximal tibia locking compression plate was used. (G) The fibular neck was fixed with a long cortex screw. (H) Radiographic image indicating fracture reduction and the internal fixation.
