Comparative study of management of distal femoral fractures managed by dynamic condylar screw and distal femoral locking compression plate
Background:Distal femoral fractures are much less common than hip fractures and account for 7% of all femoral fractures. Distal femoral fractures are difficult to treat and ideal treatment of such fractures will include anatomical reduction, rigid fixation of articular surfaces and early mobilization of knee joint. Our study aims to compare the outcome of fifty distal femoral fractures which we...
متن کاملReverse distal femoral locking compression plate a salvage option in nonunion of proximal femoral fractures
BACKGROUND When primary fixation of proximal femoral fractures with implants fails, revision osteosynthesis may be challenging. Tracts of previous implants and remaining insufficient bone stock in the proximal femur pose unique problems for the treatment. Intramedullary implants like proximal femoral nail (PFN) or surface implants like Dynamic Condylar Screw (DCS) are few of the described impla...
متن کاملManagement of periprosthetic femoral fractures after total knee arthroplasty using a distal femoral allograft.
This study is a review and discussion of 12 consecutive patients who were revised with a distal femoral allograft for periprosthetic supracondylar fractures of the femur associated with poor bone quality by the same surgeon between 1990 and 2001. Two were lost to follow-up. The average age was 65 years, and the mean follow up was 6 years. Charts were reviewed to identify complications and graft...
متن کاملMinimally invasive plate osteosynthesis using a locking compression plate for distal femoral fractures.
PURPOSE To evaluate treatment outcomes of minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) for distal femoral fractures in 31 patients. METHODS 22 male and 9 female consecutive patients aged 21 to 65 (mean, 42) years underwent minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis using a locking compression plate (LCP) for distal femoral fractures. The causes of injury were vehicular accidents (n=24), falls ...
متن کاملFunctional outcome of distal femoral fractures treated by minimally invasive surgery using locking condylar plate
Correspondence should be sent to: [email protected] ABSTRACT Background: The management of distal femoral fractures has presented significant challenge to Orthopaedic surgeons. A wide medullary canal, thin cortex and poor bone stock make stable internal fixation in these fractures difficult. Severe soft tissue damage, extensive comminution, intrarticular extension and injury to quadriceps mecha...
