Outcome of Supracondylar Femur #Fracture in Adults Managed By Distal #Femur Locking Compression Plate by Gyanendra Kumar Jha in BJSTR

Abstract

#Fractures of #distalfemur are one of the most prevalent fractures encountered in high-velocity #trauma which are associated with high #morbidity and #mortality if not managed well. The isolated fracture can itself lead to complications such as Acute #RespiratoryDistress Syndrome (ARDS) and #pulmonaryembolism (PE). This necessitates early #stabilization of fractures. Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) with locking compression plate is the treatment of choice for closed fractures of the distal femur. Distal femur anatomic contoured locking compression plate (LCP) has shown to give one of the best results regarding recovery, fracture union, return to work and the functional outcome. We present our experience of management of distal femur fracture at our centre.
