Initial description of the TEKTONA® technique for tibial plateau depression fractures - 26/10/22
Abstract |
Reduction of depressed tibial plateau fractures with TEKTONA® is a percutaneous technique done with fluoroscopy guidance whose aim is to preserve the soft tissues and avoid hemorrhage. The anatomical result is close to that of open reduction with benefits such as reduced pain and early motion. This procedure was first described for vertebral compression fractures but has recently been applied to intra-articular long bone fractures. It consists of reducing depressed fragments with a system of expandable strips mounted on a rigid clamp. Fixation of the reduced fragments is done with cement; percutaneous fixation can be added. This technique is an interesting alternative to standard treatments. Mastery requires good knowledge of the various steps and comprehensive analysis of the depression on CT scan.
