Femur fracture following ACL reconstruction has been reported in isolated cases as a result of distal femoral bone defects created for extra-articular fixation of a GoreTex prosthetic graft, 9 a ligament augmentation device, 10 iliotibial band tenodesis, 11 double-bundle reconstruction, or femoral postfixation. 12 Supracondylar femur fracture after arthroscopic ACL reconstruction without.
Pediatric supracondylar fractures are one of the most common traumatic fractures see in children and most commonly occur in children 5-7 years of age, usually from a fall on an outstretched hand. Treatment is usually closed reduction and percutanous pinning (CRPP), with the urgency depending on whether the hand remains perfused or not.
Outcome of Comminuted Supracondylar Fracture Femur Treated by Plating with Fibular Bone Grafting. J Bone Rep Recomm. 2017, 3:1. Introduction Supracondylar area constitutes the distal 9-15 cm of distal femur. Fractures in this region are difficult, complex injuries that can result in devastating outcomes. These fractures are the result of.

Objective: A retrospective review of 59 supracondylar femoral fractures occurring in 56 children between1991 and 2004 (14 years) was performed to assess treatment methods and outcomes.
Periprosthetic supracondylar femur fracture after total knee arthroplasty is a potentially devastating complication with an incidence of 0.3% to 2.5%. As the population ages and the indications for knee arthroplasty expand, the incidence of these fractures is expected to rise.
A femoral fracture is a bone fracture that involves the femur.They are typically sustained in high-impact trauma, such as car crashes, due to the large amount of force needed to break the bone. Fractures of the diaphysis, or middle of the femur, are managed differently from those at the head, neck, and trochanter (see hip fractures.
