Although there are many surgical approaches and fixation methods for the treatment of these fractures, all of these methods have <jats:italic>limitations<\/jats:italic>. We designed a new rotational support plate (RSP) and a special pressurizer that can fix the fracture directly via the anterolateral approach. This method is advantageous because it leads to little trauma, involves a simple operation, and has a reliable fixation effect. This study details the technique of treating these fractures with the RSP and special pressurizer and provides the outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>From May 2016 to January 2019, the data of 12 patients with posterolateral tibial plateau fractures treated with the RSP and special pressurizer in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Postoperative rehabilitation was advised, knee X-rays were taken at follow-ups, and fracture healing, complications, and knee range of motion were assessed. The Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee score and Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) were used to evaluate knee function at the last follow-up.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The average follow-up time of all patients was 16.5 months (range, 12\u201325 months). The average bony union time was 3.2 months (range, 3\u20134.5 months). At the last follow-up, the average knee range of motion was 138\u00b0 (range, 107\u2013145\u00b0). The average HSS score was 91 (range, 64\u201398). The average KOOS Symptoms score was 90 (range, 75\u201396). The average KOOS Pain score was 91 (range, 72\u201397). The average KOOS ADL score was 91 (range, 74\u201397). The average KOOS sport\/recreation score was 83 (range, 70\u201390). The average KOOS QOL score was 88 (range, 69\u201393).
