Introduction Minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) using locking plates has been
used in distal femur fractures, but various problems, such as nonunion, malalignment, and …

Background: Fractures of the distal femur comprise 4% to 6% of all femoral fractures. Elderly
patients are predisposed to low-energy fractures due to osteoporosis. Treatment of these …

Introduction Achieving adequate reduction is difficult when performing minimally invasive
plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) in elderly patients with simple distal femur fracture. This study …

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 …

Purpose Fractures of the distal femur remain challenging to treat, and numerous fixation
methods are designed to promote stability and fracture healing. Locking plate constructs …

Purpose To analyze the result of distal femur fracture treatment with minimally invasive plate
osteosynthesis (MIPO) using a locking compression plate (LCP). Materials and Methods …

Minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) using a locking plate has been widely used
for distal femur fractures in the elderly with osteoporosis and yielded favourable results …

Introduction: Fracture reduction and fixation of distal femur fractures are technically
demanding. Postoperative malalignment is still commonly reported after minimally invasive …

The aim of this study was to examine the results of minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis
(MIPO) of the femoral shaft fracture in patients where intramedullary nailing is …

Purpose To compare results of minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis using a locking
compression plate and a periarticular locking plate in distal femur fractures. Materials and …
