Tibial Plafond (Pilon) Fractures

Tibial Plateau Fractures

·       Associated soft-tissue injuries (meniscus and ligamentous injuries) are frequent and influence management and outcomes. ·       Diagnosis is made with initial radiographs; CT is used for fracture characterization and surgical planning, and MRI is useful for evaluating associated meniscal/ligament injuries when indicated. ·       Treatment is selected based on fracture displacement, stability, alignment, and soft-tissue status; ORIF is preferred when soft tissues permit, while staged fixation (external fixation followed by ORIF) or circular fixation (Ilizarov) may be used when soft tissues are compromised.
