Abstract:
Introduction: Treatment of supracondylar and intercondylar fractures of the distal femur has historically been difficult. These fractures are often unstable and comminuted and tend to occur in the elderly or in patients with multiple injuries. Objective: The purpose of the study is to assess the functional and radiological outcome of locking plate fixation in AO type 33C distal femur fractures. Materials and Methods: A total of 49 patients with distal femoral fractures were operated by open reduction with internal fixation with a distal femur-locking compression plate (LCP) through the standar

Abstract:
Periprosthetic distal femur fractures can be treated nonoperatively, with open reduction and internal fixation or with more constrained prostheses. Distal femoral replacement is typically a last resort treatment option for comminuted periprosthetic or osteoporotic distal femoral fractures in patients with poor bone stock or resistant nonunions. We report the case of a 54-year-old female with a remote history of bone mulch ACL reconstruction who sustained an intraoperative comminuted bicondylar distal femur fracture during a primary total knee arthroplasty.

Abstract:
<strong>Background:</strong>&nbsp;Distal femoral fractures, often caused by high-energy incidents, present challenges due to comminution and subsequent complications. Non-union of the femur, resulting from factors like severe open fractures, infections, or implant failures, leads to functional limitations and reduced quality of life. Commonly, open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) methods are employed, utilizing various devices such as locking plates, condylar screws, blade plates, and intramedullary nails. Deformities arising from distal femur fractures demand anatomical reconstruction.

Abstract:
Comminuted supracondylar femur fractures in the elderly are often treated with either retrograde femoral nailing or locked plating. Early weight-bearing is typically restricted after fixing supracondylar fractures, thereby impairing the patient’s mobilization. In general, surgeons are more comfortable allowing early weight-bearing of long bone fractures after nailing rather than plating, but early studies of retrograde nails for supracondylar fractures using standard distal locking showed poor fixation compared with locked plating.
