Arthroscopic Controlled Closed Reduction and Percutaneous Fixation of Posterolateral Tibia Plateau Impression Fractures.

Posterolateral impression fractures of the tibial plateau are common, and open reduction and fixation can be demanding, including exposure of the peroneal nerve. Based on a patient example, the surgical technique of an arthroscopic controlled closed reduction and percutaneous screw fixation of a posterolateral tibia plateau impressed fracture is described. A patient sustained a posterolateral impression currently described as an "apple bite" fracture of the tibial plateau.
