Brief Summary

Autologous ICBG and bone tamp methods are often applied to manage depressed tibial plateau fracture (DTPF), but previous iliac bone harvesting and bone tamp techniques remain controversial. The purpose of this study is to describe and evaluate the technique of using structural bicortical autologous iliac crest bone-graft (ICBG) combined with tunnel bone tamps method (TBTM) in treating DTPFs.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Postoperative immediate reduction rate

    Preoperative and postoperative imaging data of all subjects, including X-ray and CT scans, were collected. Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) was used to measure articular step-off and evaluate the immediate reduction after surgery.

    up to 2 weeks

  • Postoperative long-term reduction rate

    The immediate postoperative and follow-up imaging data of all subjects, including X-ray and CT scan, were collected. PACS system was used to measure the articular step-off and evaluate the long-term reduction after surgery.

    up to 2 weeks

  • Bone healing time

    Postoperative follow-up imaging data of all patients were collected, including X-ray and CT scans.Evaluating the bone healing time based on callus growth.

    up to 2 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • operative time

    up to 1 weeks

  • intraoperative blood loss

    up to 1 weeks

  • The incidence of complications in the bone-graft donor and bone-graft sites

    up to 1 weeks

  • the Visual Analog Scale scores of ICBG donor and bone-graft sites

    up to 1 week

  • Hospital for Special Surgery score of knee

    uo to 1 week

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

DTPFs treated with structural bicortical autologous ICBG combined with TBTM

EXPERIMENTAL
Procedure: surgery

Interventions

surgeryPROCEDURE

tunnel bone tamps method (TBTM) was used to reduce the depressed articular fragments and then structural bicortical autologous ICBG was used to fill the valley tunnel.

Also known as: Structural bicortical autologous iliac crest bone graft combined with tunnel bone tamps method
DTPFs treated with structural bicortical autologous ICBG combined with TBTM
