Proximal tibia fracture, Tibia plateau fracture, ORIF, Herbert screwAbstract
A 40-year-old man sustained a unique lateral tibia plateau fracture pattern with a 180-degree rotated fragment composed of an intra-articular surface and subchondral bone. At final follow-up, the patient regained pain-free activity. This case represents an undescribed fracture pattern that indicates an associated cruciate injury. A thorough evaluation, including Magnetic Resonance Imaging should be considered. One-stage ORIF with Herbert screw and partially threaded cancellous cannulated screw was done which represents a good treatment option.
