Bicondylar Hoffa Fracture Successfully Treated with Headless Compression Screws
Bicondylar coronal plane fracture, eponymically named Hoffa fractures, is an extremely rare injury. We present a case of isolated unilateral bicondylar Hoffa fracture that was successfully treated with open reduction and internal fixation using headless compression screws with satisfactory results. We inserted posteroanteriorly oriented Acutrak screws perpendicular to the fracture plane via lat...
متن کاملOperative Treatment of Isolated Bicondylar Hoffa Fracture With a Modified Swashbuckler Approach
INTRODUCTION An isolated coronal fracture of either or both femoral condyles is a rare entity and is usually associated with high-energy injury trauma. Such fractures should be meticulously fixed for a good functional outcome as they involve the articular surface of a weight bearing joint. A modified swashbuckler approach provides adequate exposure for appropriate reduction and fixation of such...
متن کاملCASE REPORT Operative Treatment of Unilateral Bicondylar Hoffa Fractures
A rare case of unilateral bicondylar fractures of the femoral condyles is presented. Internal fixation of the fragments was achieved by three cancellous lag screws, followed by a short period of cast immobilization and intensive physiotherapy. Full weight bearing was allowed 3 months postoperatively. Full range of motion of the knee and no presence of articular defects on femoral condyles were ...
متن کاملTotal Knee Arthroplasty as Salvage for Non Union in Bicondylar Hoffa Fracture: a report of two cases
INTRODUCTION Bicondylar Hoffa fracture is a rare injury with implant failure and non unions as known complications. CASE REPORT Two cases of Bicondylar Hoffa fractures with implant failure and nonunion treated successfully with long stem total knee arthroplasty are reported here. At a minimum follow up of 2 years both the implants were well fixed and the fractures have united. The knee societ...
متن کاملHoffa fracture: a case report
Unicondylar fractures of the femur that occur in the coronal plane (Hoffa fractures) are uncommon and most often affect the lateral condyle. Conservative treatment generally yields poor results, but rigid internal fixation allows early functional rehabilitation and decreases the incidence of malunion, nonunion, and stability loss. This case report describes open reduction and internal fixation ...
