Abstract

Fractures in the distal femur have posed considerable therapeutic challenges throughout the history of fracture treatment because they are usually compound, comminuted, readily deformed because of muscle forces acting on the distal fragment, prone to result in functional impairment of the knee joint and ankle joint because of injury to quadriceps system and often occur in elderly patients with osteoporosis.
