Association between articular surface depression and functional outcomes after ORIF of tibial plateau fractures: a retrospective cohort study
A postoperative step-off deformity exceeding 2.5 mm on postoperative CT scans significantly impacts the mid-term functional outcome of patients undergoing ORIF after TPF, as evidenced by poorer WOMAC scores. This study emphasizes the importance of accurate TPF reduction to optimize patient outcomes.
