Abstract : The knee joint is a complex joint and is commonly injured joint now a days because of increased vehicular trauma and sports related injuries.Being superficial joint and more exposed to external forces, the joint easily gets injury [1]. Complex tibial fracture management remains clinically challenging these are usually described as type V and type VI [2]. Tibial plateau fractures are serious but rare injury spectrum account for ~1.2% of all fractures [3]. There is a wide demographic spread from young fitter males involved highenergy trauma upto frail older female with under lying osteoporosis where they may representupto8%
