Herein, we characterized the coronal fractures in AO\/OTA type 33-C3 and assessed their differences with Busch\u2013Hoffa fractures (33-B3).\n<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>We retrospectively collected 61 cases of AO\/OTA type 33-B or C fractures with coronal plane fragments and generated three-dimensional fracture maps of those with coronal fractures based on CT imaging and measured angle <jats:italic>\u03b1<\/jats:italic> (the angle between the coronal fracture and the posterior condyle axis in the axis plane) and angle <jats:italic>\u03b2<\/jats:italic> (the angle between the coronal fracture and the posterior femoral cortex in the sagittal plane).<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Thirty-three cases (32%) of AO\/OTA type 33-C fractures contained coronal fragments.

Angles <jats:italic>\u03b1<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>\u03b2<\/jats:italic> for type 33-C3 were significantly smaller than for type B3 at the lateral condyle, while the angles at the medial condyle were not significantly different.
