Abstract
Background: Adult tibial spine fractures (TSFs) are rare but can cause significant morbidity.
Materials and methods: A systematic review identified studies on adult TSFs. Patient demographics, fracture characteristics, surgical details, outcomes, and complications were analyzed using descriptive statistics and meta-analysis.
Results: Twenty-eight studies (691 cases) were included. Most fractures were type III, treated arthroscopically with sutures or screws. Fracture type showed no significant differences in outcomes. Suture fixation yielded better functional scores and fewer complications than screws.
Conclusion: No definitive advantage was observed for either fracture type or fixation method. Further research is needed to establish optimal treatments. [Orthopedics. 2025;48(3):174-187.].
