Introduction Distal femur fractures are challenging injuries historically associated with high
rates of nonunion and varus collapse with operative management. As a result, clinical and …

Dual-plating of the distal femur is required in some cases to achieve stable fixation. The
indications of a medial plate in addition to the lateral plate are medial supracondylar bone …

Objectives: This biomechanical study compares the effectiveness of dual-plate (DP) and
plate-nail (PN) constructs for fixation of supracondylar distal femur fractures in synthetic and …

Introduction Lateral locked plating is a standard treatment option for distal femur fractures.
However, the unstable conditions after lateral locked plating are increasing. The objective of …

Purpose Helical plates potentially avoid the medial neurovascular structures of the thigh.
Two implant designs for additional medial 90° helical plate in double plate constructs for …

Methods: Studies reporting clinical outcomes for DP of native distal femur fractures were
identified and systematically reviewed. Publications without full-text manuscripts, those …

Clinical findings, manufacturer instructions, and surgeon's preferences often dictate the
implantation of distal femur locked plates (DFLPs), but healing problems and implant failures …

Objective To compare the biomechanical stabilities of less invasive stabilization system
(LISS) plate and retrograde intramedullary nail (IMN) for the comminuted femoral …

Purpose To report functional and radiological outcomes of using primary fibular graft
together with double plating in distal femoral fractures in the elderly. Methods A retrospective …

Significant work has been done in recent years on treatment strategies for distal femur
fractures. Inclusive reviews on periprosthetic fractures of distal femur have been carried out …
