A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted following approval from the institutional review board. Patients who presented to our center over a four-year period, from July 1 2015 to June 30 2019, were included in the study. Participants were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria following review of the medical records. A standardized proforma was used to collect the data and stored in Microsoft Excel. Data processing and analysis was done in Statistical Packages for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 23.0. All categorical data were presented as percentages along with absolute numbers, while all continuous numerical data were reported as mean ± standard deviation. Tibial plateau fractures were classified according to Schatzker classification, which comprise six types, with severity increasing progressively from type I to type VI.
