The lateral meniscus was elevated to allow visualization of the tibial surface and assess fracture reduction. The first case was repaired using two 2.0\u2009mm lag screws (with washers). The second case sustained a lateral TPF, fibular fracture and concurrent tubercle of Gerdy fracture. Both tibial fractures were stabilized using two 2.0\u2009mm lag screws with washers and two 0.9\u2009mm Kirschner wires (K\u2010wires). A third case, diagnosed with an Unger type 41\u2010B2 medial TPF, was treated using 0.9\u2009mm K\u2010wires and 22\u2010gauge tension band.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>There were no major complications noted. One minor complication occurred (screw yield two weeks postoperatively). By 8\u2009weeks, all patients reached clinical union with good limb function.
