Objectives: Compare patient-reported outcome measures between hyperextension varus tibial plateau (HEVTP) fracture patterns to non-HEVTP fracture patterns.
Design: Retrospective study.
Setting: Single academic Level 1 Trauma Center.
Patient Selection Criteria: All patients who underwent fixation of a tibial plateau fracture from 2016 to 2021 were collected. Exclusion criteria included inaccurate Current Procedural Terminology code, ipsilateral compartment syndrome, bilateral fractures, incomplete medical records, or follow-up <10 months.
Outcome Measures And Comparisons: In patients who underwent fixation of a tibial plateau fracture, compare Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System-Physical Function, PROMIS Preference, and Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) between patients with a HEVTP pattern with those without.
Results: Two-hundred and seven patients were included, of which 17 (8%) had HEVTP fractures. Compared with non-HEVTP fracture patterns, patients with HEVTP injuries were younger (42.6 vs. 51.0, P = 0.025), more commonly male (71% vs. 44%, P = 0.033), and had higher body mass index (32.8 vs. 28.0, P = 0.05). HEVTP fractures had significantly more ligamentous knee (29% vs. 6%, P = 0.007) and vascular (12% vs. 1%, P = 0.035) injuries. Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System-Physical Function scores were similar between groups; however, PROMIS-Preference (0.37 vs. 0.51, P = 0.017) was significantly lower in HEVTP fractures. KOOS pain, activities of daily living, and quality-of-life scores were statistically lower in HEVTP fractures, but only KOOS quality-of-life was clinically relevant (41.7 vs. 59.3, P = 0.004).
Conclusions: The HEVTP fracture pattern, whether unicondylar or bicondylar, was associated with a higher rate of ligamentous and vascular injuries compared with non-HEVTP fracture patterns. They were also associated with worse health-related quality of life at midterm follow-up.
Level Of Evidence: Prognostic Level III. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

Background: Schatzker type-4 to 6 tibial plateau fractures most commonly occur when the distal femur is driven through the proximal tibial articular surface. This mechanism of injury can be equivalent to a knee dislocation and carries an increased risk of vascular injury. Our institution screens all Schatzker type-4 to 6 tibial plateau fractures with symmetric pulses for a vascular injury by measuring the ankle-brachial index (ABI).

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate on fulfillment of expectations and patient satisfaction after surgical treatment of complex proximal tibial fractures.
Methods: In this prospective study 114 patients who suffered a complex tibial fracture (AO/OTA-Type B and C) were enrolled. At follow-up, based on the Hospital For Special Surgery-Knee Surgery Expectations Survey (HFSS-KSES), an individualized questionnaire was used to evaluate whether the preoperative formulated expectations had been fulfilled.

Objectives: There is a lack of literature regarding the surgical management of high-grade patellar luxation in cats. Among the available options, corrective osteotomies are suitable for correcting severe bone deformities. Therefore, this study aimed to report on the surgical management of grade IV medial patellar luxation (MPL) through tibial corrective osteotomies in two cats.

Purpose: This study assessed the measurements of the medial posterior tibial slope (MPTS) using long radiographs and three-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT) scans and compared them to measurements taken on short lateral knee radiographs. The study aimed to identify whether the at-risk slope measurements previously defined on the short radiographs would be similar to long radiographs and 3D CT scans.
Methods: A retrospective radiological review of 52 cases, who underwent planning for a slope-changing high tibial osteotomy and had short and long lateral radiographs and 3D CT scans of the tibia.
Background: Knee arthroplasty procedures improve pain, function, stability, and appearance of the limb. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in severe, long-standing osteoarthritis (OA) with large medial tibial defects could be a challenge. This paper looks at TKA outcomes when large tibial defects are managed without metal wedges or stems.
