Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the surgical treatment results of tibial plateau closed fracture of Schatzker V - VIusing dual locking plating at lateral and posteriomedial tibial plateau via2-incision technique at Thong Nhat hospital. Methods: The retrospective, prospective descriptive study was conducted on 18 elder patients with closed fractures of Schatzker V - VItibial plateauhad internal fixation using dual locking plate via 2-incisions at Thong Nhat hospital, from Jan 2018 to Jan 2021.

Anatomic recovery has been shown to improve good anatomical structure, from which functional rehabilitation results in higher results with 66.7% achieving good and very good results. Conclusion: The surgical treatment oftibial plateau Schatzker types V-VI closed fracture using dual locking plate via 2-incisions for good recovery anatomy and function.
