Distal femoral fractures: current concepts.
The diversity of surgical options for the management of distal femoral fractures reflects the challenges inherent in these injuries. These fractures are frequently comminuted and intra-articular, and they often involve osteoporotic bone, which makes it difficult to reduce and hold them while maintaining joint function and overall limb alignment. Surgery has become the standard of care for displ...
متن کاملShort-term Results of Using Injectable Bone Cement Technique in the Treatment of Unstable Distal Radius Fractures
Background & Aims: Treatment of osteoporotic distal radius fracture with metaphyseal defect is often complicated by secondary displacement, because of posterior cortex comminution. The aim of this study was to investigate functional outcomes and advantages of injection of bone cement in stabilizing and maintaining this fracture reduction. Methods: This prospective study was performed on 20 ...
متن کاملAntegrade interlocking nailing for distal femoral fractures.
PURPOSE To assess outcomes of antegrade interlocking nailing for supracondylar or intercondylar fractures of the distal femur. METHODS Records of 10 women and 20 men aged 20 to 70 (mean, 48.7) years who underwent antegrade interlocking nailing for distal femoral fractures were reviewed. 23 patients had closed fractures and 7 had open fractures; 6 had associated fractures of the forearm or tib...
متن کاملTreatment Options for Distal Femoral Fractures.
INTRODUCTION Due to their high complication rate and negative impact of those complications upon the knee and the whole lower limb, distal femoral fractures require optimal restoration of the functional anatomy and stable fixation thus allowing early recovery. This paper presents the experience of the authors regarding the indications and results of the most accepted surgical methods, including...
