Second, we determined whether the patient required total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Third, based on the characteristics of the tibial plateau fracture malunion, patients underwent one of the following surgical methods to achieve reduction: original fracture line osteotomy, tibial tubercle \u00fe original fracture line osteotomy, fibula head \u00fe original fracture line osteotomy, and metaphyseal open window reduction rod technique. The results was assessed with healing time, Rasmussen score, knee range of motion and complication rates.\n\nResults: A total of 25 patients 16 men and 9 women; Mean age: 47.4 years (range: 35e63 years) underwent tibial plateau fracture revision operation. The time interval between the two surgeries was 2e24 months. The follow-up time was 12e30 months, and the operation time was 120e300 min. All patients received bone union at the last follow-up. The healing time was 3e6 months. The postoperative Rasmussen score was 19e29 (mean 23.8) compared with 14.4 points before the operation (p &lt; 0.05). The postoperative knee joint activity was 60e110 (mean 95.0), compared with 57.8 before the operation (p &lt; 0.05). Six patients still had a 2-mm collapse on the articular surface, and 4 patients still had slight valgus (&lt;5). Except for 2 TKA cases, fracture reduction was excellent in 15 cases and good in 8 cases, with a good rate of 100%. Superficial wound infections occurred in 3 patients.\n\nConclusion: Because revision of tibial plateau fracture malunion caused by failure of initial treatment is difficult, it is necessary to create a detailed surgical plan before the operation. Satisfactory clinical effects can be obtained if the correct revision strategy is used. The key to success is adopting a proper revision strategy according to the unique characteristics of the patient's tibial plateau fracture malunion.\n\n\nLevel of Evidence: Level IV, Therapeutic Study.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.aott.2019.08.018","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,9,19]],"date-time":"2019-09-19T17:07:01Z","timestamp":1568912821000},"page":"432-441","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/elsevier_cm_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Revision strategy for malunited tibial plateau fracture caused by failure of initial treatment"],"prefix":"10.5152","volume":"53","author":[{"given":"Jiang","family":"Liangjun","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zheng","family":"Qiang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pan","family":"Zhijun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hang","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"3111","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,12,24]]},"reference":[{"issue":"3","key":"10.1016\/j.aott.2019.08.018_bib1","first-page":"161","article-title":"Results following operative treatment of tibial plateau fractures","volume":"26","author":"Urruela","year":"2013","journal-title":"J\u00a0Knee Surg"},{"issue":"10","key":"10.1016\/j.aott.2019.08.018_bib2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2221","DOI":"10.1016\/j.injury.2017.07.016","article-title":"Complications and unplanned outcomes following operative treatment of tibial plateau fractures","volume":"48","author":"Kugelman","year":"2017","journal-title":"Injury"},{"issue":"10","key":"10.1016\/j.aott.2019.08.018_bib3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1169","DOI":"10.1007\/s00402-007-0520-7","article-title":"Open reduction and internal fixation versus hybrid fixation for bicondylar\/severe tibial plateau fractures: a systematic review of the literature","volume":"128","author":"Mahadeva","year":"2008","journal-title":"Arch Orthop Trauma Surg"},{"issue":"3","key":"10.1016\/j.aott.2019.08.018_bib4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"183","DOI":"10.1097\/00005131-199406000-00001","article-title":"Tibial plateau fractures: a study of associated soft tissue injuries","volume":"8","author":"Bennett","year":"1994","journal-title":"J\u00a0Orthop Trauma"},{"issue":"7","key":"10.1016\/j.aott.2019.08.018_bib5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1331","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-197355070-00001","article-title":"Tibial condylar fractures.
