Purpose The literature lacks recent epidemiological studies on the incidence, trauma
mechanism and fracture classification of distal femur fractures. The aim of the present study …

Introduction The incidence of nonunion after fractures of the distal femur is up to 6%. The
distal femoral nonunion is a disabling disease that needs complex steps in his treatment …

Introduction: Distal femoral fractures in elderly population had recorded an increase in
incidence in the last 2 decades. Lateral distal femoral locking plating is considered one of …

Treatment of complex osteoporotic distal femur fractures with the Less Invasive Stabilization
System (LISS) has been associated with high complication rates. The aim of this study was …

The present study was performed to compare the clinical efficacy of lateral plate and lateral
and medial double-plating fixation of distal femoral fractures and explore the indication of …

Background Distal femur fractures are difficult to manage, and the selection of implant
approach for internal fixation remains controversial. This study explores the clinical outcome …

Purpose The aims of this study were to evaluate risk factors for knee stiffness after the
fixation of distal femoral fractures, and to analyze the clinical and radiologic outcomes …

Introduction: Management of distal femoral fractures is a therapeutic challenge to the
orthopaedic and due to its extensive soft tissue injuries, bone loss, comminution, articular …

Background: Distal femur fractures need to be treated operatively to achieve optimal
outcomes. Different types of internal fixation devices have been used but, the number of …

Introduction: Fractures of distal femur are one of the most prevalent fractures encountered in
high-velocity trauma which are associated with high morbidity and mortality if not managed …
