Treatment of femur segmentary comminuted fractures by indirect reduction

Abstract

Femur segmentary comminuted fractures, occurring by high-power trauma, is one of the most important matters that still disturb traumatologues at present due to the difficulties of its treatment and high rate complication. In this study, we treated 16 patients with traumatic femur segmentary fractures by long condylar plate (A of 95¡), using indirect reduction method. Of our cases, 10 were wounded by traffic accident, 6 by firearms. Through the analysis of the result, it was observed that consolidation developed in all cases except one, in whom post operative infection developed and who was accepted as an successful, in 6 months on average, and at the end of this period, almost full weight was given. We think that this method, for today, may be an alternative against intramedullary locking pins which are recommended for femur segmentary fractures and accepted as a good treatment method is fairly easy, and scopy and fracture table are not needed in operation. In addition, it does not require further surgical instrumentation; another advantage of the method is that it is more economical.
