Medical osteoarthritis (OA). Various treatment modalities have been used over the years, with mixed results. We College, Indore, Madhya present a study to report the functional results of tibial plateau fractures and to evaluate the association of Pradesh, India proximal fibula fractures with respect to final outcome. Methods: Patients diagnosed with tibial plateau fractures from July 2012 to March 2016 were included in the study. Patients with open injuries or neurovascular compromise were excluded. Patients were divided into subgroups on the basis of presence or absence of proximal fibula fracture. 124 patients were managed by either conservative or operative means and followed for an average of 19 months and clinically monitored for functional outcome using Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Score. Results: The study population consisted of 65 males and 59 females. Mean patient age was 46 years (range, 24-67 years). Mechanism of injury included road traffic accident (56), fall from height (14), and falls (54). Functional outcome as assessed by Knee Injury and
