A Balance between Art and Principle in Management Complex Femur Fracture
Journal Title: Journal of Orthopedics & Bone Disorders - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Complex fractures of proximal and distal femur often difficult to treat. Plating of segmental femoral shaft fractures is also an option, particularly when associated with peritrochanteric fractures, but associated complications. Although technically difficult, intramedullary nailing has been recommended by several studies and has demonstrated good results. The purpose of this review was to analyse our results with the interlocked nailing of complex fractures of the femur.
