The proximal tibia is swollen and divided into the medial condyle and the lateral condyle, which together with the medial and lateral condyles of the distal femur and the patella form the knee joint. The protruding bone surface between the two condyles is called the intercondylar eminence. There are two concave rough surfaces in front and behind the eminence, respectively called the intercondylar anterior fossa and the intercondylar posterior fossa. There is a rough eminence on the front of the upper end, called the tibial tuberosity.
Most fractures of the proximal tibia are caused by external violence to the lower leg, resulting in a fracture of the proximal tibia. Generally, there are also fractures in other places. However, the treatment of the proximal tibia fracture is simple, just cast it and fix it, and perhaps some anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and blood circulation drugs will be given during this period. Resting for about three months will heal.
