The Incidence of Posterolateral Tibial Plateau Fractures in the Setting of Knee Dislocations
A PLTPF was observed in one-quarter, and an LFCIF in one-fifth, of acute knee dislocations. They occurred particularly in knee dislocations with medial collateral ligament ruptures. Almost two-thirds of all PLTPFs presented as high-grade fractures according to the Menzdorf or Bernholt classification, potentially requiring a surgical intervention.
