Hospital documents of patients were used for data collection. To analyze the data, K.S test ,Kruskal-Wallis, and Chi-square tests were used.   Results: The mean Lysholm score was 79.7 (± 12.3) . The minimum score was 48 in three patients and the maximum score was 94 in nine patients (16.7%). According to scores gained by patients, the result of treatment was excellent in 8 cases(14.8%), good in 19 (35.1%), fair in 17 (31.4%) and poor in 10 (18.6%). The mean VAS score was 2.77 (± 1.14). Conclusion: According to the findings of the recent study and previous studies, it seems that the treatment of tibial plateau fractures is challenging. Proper and accurate pre-operative evaluations with proper anatomic reconstruction of the articular surfaces with stable fixation may lead to better functional outcomes. M3 ER -
