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...

conclusions in our study, we treated this rare fracture successfully using a modified swashbuckler approach and found it to be a good approach for such fractures as compared to the conventional approach. case presentation a 32-year-old male sustained a bicondylar hoffa fracture of the right femur which was treated by open reduction and internal fixation using a modified swashbuckler approach. a...
متن کاملAcute Lumbar Burst Fracture Treated by Minimally Invasive Lateral Corpectomy
Burst fractures in acute spinal traumas are a difficult problem to solve. Different approaches and techniques have been utilized, but with high incidence of morbidity and mortality, besides unsatisfactory clinical and radiological results. Mini-open approaches recently emerged and have been shown to be safe and effective in the treatment of several spinal conditions. Here we report a case of ac...
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 ...
