From: Posterolateral tibial plateau fracture with anterior cruciate ligament injury has biomechanical characteristics of anterolateral rotatory instability through finite element analysis

Fig. 2

The establishment of PLTPF model: The line a and b bisect the medial–lateral and anterior–posterior dimensions of the lateral tibial plateau, respectively, while line c bisects the anterior–posterior dimension of the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus, with the posterior portion occupying approximately a quarter of the anterior–posterior diameter of the tibial plateau (A). Based on this definition, when the regions posterior to lines b and c experience varying degrees of posterolateral slope increase (5°, 10°, 15°), we will analyze and compare the differences in biomechanical performance of the models (B).
