Abstract

Background & Objectives: Severely comminuted distal femur fractures are in association with the high complications and their treatment is so difficult. SUPRACONDYLAR FEMUR FRACTURES usually occur as a result of low-energy trauma in osteoporotic bone in elderly persons or highenergy trauma in young patients. This study was aimed to assess the results of new treatment plan for comminuted intra-articular distal femur fractures with LOCKING CONDYLAR BUTTRESS PLATE. The results of this strategy will help us to find the effective method of treatment for the distal femur fractures.Methods: In a prospective cross-sectional study, 47 patients with intra-articular distal femur fractures after two weeks fracture and treating with LOCKING CONDYLAR BUTTRESS PLATE were selected. Then, they were examined for infection, range of knee motion and union at the first and second week and 1, 2 and 3 months after surgery. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics and the level of significance was set as p<0.05.Results: 53.2% of the patients had closed fractures, 6.4% of them had open type I and the rest showed open type IIIA fracture. The overall union rate was seen in 80.9% of cases and infection was detected in 19.1% and malunion was observed 21.3% of patients. The mean degree for range of motion was 105.74 ±24.47 and the maximum degree of extension was 20.Conclusion: Complete fixation for distal femur fracture type C3 was achieved by buttress plate and using this locking condylar plate was association with less complication such as infection, malunion and non-union.
