✅ Meyers and McKeever Classification System for Tibial Spine Fractures
- Type I Injury:
Characterized by a minimally displaced fragment. This type of injury typically responds well to conservative treatment methods. - Type II Injury:
This subtype features an anterior elevation of the fracture fragment, indicating a more significant displacement compared to Type I. - Type III and IV Injuries:
Both these categories signify the complete separation of the fragment from the tibia, with Type IV also incorporating either a rotational component or comminution of the fragment.
✅ Treatment Recommendations:
- Type I Injuries: Given their minimal displacement, conservative treatment is usually sufficient.
- Type II to IV Injuries: Arthroscopy is recommended and necessitates internal fixation to ensure proper healing and restoration of function.
