Exposure will be defined as surgery with one or two angular stable plates (closed reduction, internal fixation) after a proximal tibial fracture. Patients will be allowed immediate weight bearing as tolerated in cases where the osteosynthesis is deemed stable. This represents the current practice at Slagelse Hospital. Typical, all lateral tibia plateau fractures (AO fracture classification 41B1-3) osteosynthesized will be allowed immediate WBAT after surgery. Other tibia plateau fractures will be allowed immediate WBAT if the osteosynthesis is deemed stable by the surgeon perioperatively.
