Percutaneous fixation method has been applied in Schatzker type III joint depressed-type lateral tibial plateau fracture. We report a 76-year-old man suffering from a small joint depressed-type posterolateral tibial plateau fracture with surgical reduction and fixation with a novel guidance of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction femoral template under X-ray and arthroscopic assistance. The concept of sequential tunnel drilling in ligament reconstruction has been applied in bone impaction tunnel creation beneath the articular step with the PCL jig. Avoidance of multiple bone guide pin drilling and accurate guide pin insertion and hence screw fixation was also achieved by use of the PCL template. As illustrated, we believe that the PCL jig is a good armamentarium and adjunct equipment to achieve a more precise minimally invasive operation in special anatomical positions such as the postero-lateral tibial plateau under careful surgical planning. |
