There were 9 patient with fracture type I, 14 with type II, 14 with type III, 10 patients with type IV, 6 with type V and 12 with type VI of \; fracture. The most common cause of the fracture were the motor vehicle accidents – in 29 cases \(44,5%\), the less common \- in 11 \(17%\) patients – the fall down on the same level or the height less than 1,5. All the patients were treated with open reduction and internal fixation using the lag screws and buttress plates. In 4 \(2 males and 2 females\) cases the initial knee arthroscopy was performed before the internal fixation. In 8 cases \(12,3%\) the allogenic bone graft was used in addition to internal fixation.. The final follow up was performed 3 months after implant removal in this group of patients and 6 months after surgery in the group where implants were not removed. For the radiological assessment the Rasmussen \[39\] classification was used and for the functional one – the HSS scale with Golec and Nowak \[40\] modification. The complication were evaluated in the postoperative period, 3 months after implant removal in this group of patients and 6 months after internal fixation in the group where implant was not removed. The statistical analysis with Statistica program was performed. Results\:Overall analysis based on the HSS scale with Golec and Nowak \[40\] modification showe"]
