*3.2.1 Reconstruction with periosteal-cortical graft of the tibial lateral plateau: clinical outcome with an 18-month follow-up case*

 A 63-year-old woman presented with a bicondylar fracture of the right tibial plateau with extension to the diaphysis. She underwent surgical treatment 40 days after the fracture. It presented great destruction of the lateral articular surface, being reconstructed with the use of periosteal cortical graft of the external iliac board, suture of lateral meniscus, and reinsertion. Fixation of the graft with Kirschner wire and cortical screw is associated with lateral support plate and medial locked plate (**Figures 1**–**4**).
