Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The investigators hypothesize immediate weight bearing as tolerated following surgery with plates and screws of the above mentioned fracture, in cases deemed stable by the surgeon, will not lead to any loss of reduction.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The investigators hypothesize immediate weight bearing as tolerated (WBAT) following plate osteosynthesis after a proximal tibial plateau fracture, in cases deemed stable by the surgeon, will not lead to any loss of reduction.
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.
Fractures are treated with one or several locking plates, and if needed after reduction of the tibial plateau, an impacted allogenic bone graft is used. The bone graft is applied through a cortical window osteotomy distal to the fracture.
Follow up will be performed at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year by any of the authors or a consultant in orthopedics. Follow up will be performed at the outpatient clinic.
