- PURPOSE
To evaluate the result of comparative study about the cases in the fracture of the distal femur treated with plate and screw, dynamic condylar screw, blade plate, retrograde intramedullary nail and external fixator.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
The AO classification system was used. 84 cases who were preformed operation during the period from March 1996 to May 2002, were included in this study. The mean duration of follow-up was 25 months. According to Sachatzker criteria, we classified the following results to excellent, good, fair and poor.
RESULTS
Type A were excellent or good result when treated with plate and screw, dynamic condylar screw and retrograde intramedullary nail. Type B were excellent or good result when treated with cannulated screw. Type C were excellent or good result when treated with plate and screw and blade plate.
CONCLUSION
We conclude that the most important thing in operation is firmly internal fixation and to obtain this, accurately anatomical reduction and the choice of suitable instrument for the type of the fracture are needed. cannulated screw. Type C were excellent or good result when treated with plate and screw and blade plate.
