VerifiedHello I’m a musculoskeletal radiologist and read these types of studies daily and work closely with the orthopedic surgeon...The main determining factors are how much depression or displacement the fracture fragments have along the articular surfaces in order to determine how likely it will be to heal properly...without proper alignment you will be predisposed to premature arthritis in that knee and will eventually require a replacementWhen you say 7.5 mm from the lateral line I’m not if you mean that you have a lateral tibial plateau fracture that is displaced by about 7.5 mm or maybe it’s depressed 7.5 mm
