Overview
In 1825, Sir Astley Cooper first described fractures of the proximal tibia and recommended treatment by re-alignment, splintage and early passive motion. In 1939, the first classification system was proposed by Marchant. In 1973, Rasmussen introduced open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of tibial condylar fractures. In 1979, Schatzker described his classification which is still commonly used today. In 1987, AO/OTA came up with its own classification for tibial plateau fracture.

Landmark Events in the Development of Treatment Strategies
- In 1825, Sir Astley Cooper recommended treatment by re-alignment, splintage and early passive motion.[1]
- In 1850's, Anger treated most minimally displaced fractures with early knee traction mobilization.[1]
- In 1939, the first classification system was proposed by Marchant.[2]
- The 1960, Duparc and Ficat gave a classification which is commonly used is used in France.[3]
- In 1972, Sarmiento popularized functional cast bracing of most tibial condylar fractures.[4]
- In 1973, Rasmussen introduced open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of tibial condylar fractures.[5]
- In 1979, Schatzker described his classification which is still commonly used today.[6]
- In 1987, AO/OTA came up with its own classification.[7]
