We surgically treated 15 tibial condylar fractures from 1991 to 1995. Fractures were classified into undisplaced type (1 case), central depression type (2), split depression type (5), total depression type (4), split type (1), comminuted type (2) as defined by Hohl. We only used the cancellous screw in all cases and bone grafting was necessary in 5 cases. Clinical results were evaluated according to Hohl & Luck's score. Anatomic results were excellent in 12 cases and good in 3. Functional results were excellent in 8 cases, good in 6 and fair in 1. When we performed this operation screw fixation was less invasive than plate fixation and made early rehabilitation possible. This fixation achieved sahsfactory results.
