Abstract
- We reviewed fifteen cases of tibial condylar fractures, especially, Schatzker type VI treated with hybrid method from January 1995 to May 1997. We attained satisfactory bony union in all cases. There were not serious complications such as deep wound infection and severe angular deformity, but partial ankylosis. After operation, the patients could do knee motion exercise immediately and had no difficulty in getting maintenance of reduction and fracture healing. In conclusions, the hybrid method is an excellent treatment in soft tissue care, maintenance of reduction, and early ambulation and fracture healing in the cases of tibial condylar fractures.
