Treatment of Tibial Plateau Fractures With Bone-graft and Bone Tamp Technique

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Depressed Tibial Plateau Fractures
Interventions
Procedure: surgery
Registration Number
NCT04807062
Lead Sponsor
Hebei Medical University Third Hospital
Brief Summary

Autologous ICBG and bone tamp methods are often applied to manage depressed tibial plateau fracture (DTPF), but previous iliac bone harvesting and bone tamp techniques remain controversial. The purpose of this study is to describe and evaluate the technique of using structural bicortical autologous iliac crest bone-graft (ICBG) combined with tunnel bone tamps method (TBTM) in treating DTPFs.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Postoperative immediate reduction rateup to 2 weeks

Preoperative and postoperative imaging data of all subjects, including X-ray and CT scans, were collected. Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) was used to measure articular step-off and evaluate the immediate reduction after surgery.

Postoperative long-term reduction rateup to 2 weeks

The immediate postoperative and follow-up imaging data of all subjects, including X-ray and CT scan, were collected. PACS system was used to measure the articular step-off and evaluate the long-term reduction after surgery.

Bone healing timeup to 2 weeks

Postoperative follow-up imaging data of all patients were collected, including X-ray and CT scans.Evaluating the bone healing time based on callus growth.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
intraoperative blood lossup to 1 weeks

The intraoperative blood loss in the bone graft donor site and bone graft site of all subjects was recorded as the basis for evaluating the size of surgical trauma.

The incidence of complications in the bone-graft donor and bone-graft sitesup to 1 weeks

Surging-related complications of all subjects were recorded as a basis for evaluating surgical outcomes.

Hospital for Special Surgery score of kneeuo to 1 week

The knee Hospital for Special Surgery scores (ranged from 0 to 100, 0 representing poor knee function and 100 representing normal knee function) of all subjects during the postoperative follow-up was recorded as the basis for evaluating the surgical effect.

operative timeup to 1 weeks

The operation time in the bone graft donor site and bone graft site of all subjects was recorded as the basis for evaluating the size of surgical trauma.

the Visual Analog Scale scores of ICBG donor and bone-graft sitesup to 1 week

The Visual Analog Scale pain scores (ranged from 0 to 10, 0 representing no pain and 10 representing maximal imaginable pain) of all subjects during postoperative follow-up were recorded as the basis for evaluating the surgical effect.

36-Item Short-Form Health Survey scoreup to 1 week

36-Item Short-Form Health Survey scores (ranged from 0 to 100, 0 representing poor health and 100 representing normal health) of all subjects during postoperative follow-up were recorded as the basis for evaluating the surgical effect.
