Core Tip
Core Tip: On sagittal view of computerized tomography, fragment subsiding distance degree of 8 mm and posterior tibial slope exceeding 11.74° implied enhanced risk of traumatic meniscal lesion (TML) in bicondylar tibial plateau fractures. On coronal view, once fragment width of plateau surpassed 3 cm, incidence of TML reached 100%. On transverse view, area ratio of fragment area as enhanced risk of 5.5% and fragment subsiding distance > 4.3 mm for predicting TML was observed in unicondylar tibial plateau fractures.
