Biomechanics and finite element analysis of a novel plate designed for posterolateral tibial plateau fractures via the anterolateral approach

Abstract Surgical management of posterolateral tibial plateau (PLTP) fractures is challenging. One reason for this challenge is the lack of suitable internal fixation devices. Our aim was to introduce a novel plate via the anterolateral approach for managing PLTP fractures. The biomechanical testing...
