- PURPOSE
: In this paper, we have intended to evaluate the types of fracture of the distal femur treated with anatomical bone plate, simple and user's friendly apparatus and to assess their clinical results.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
: We retrospectively reviewed 21 cases in 20 patients who were followed up over 1 year among the patients that had distal femoral fractures treated with anantomical bone plate. We analysed their fracture types in AO classification and assessed clinical results according to Neer system. The average duration of follow-up was 30 months(range, 14months to 49 months).
RESULTS
: Ont of twenty-one cases, twelve were A type(A1, 3 cases;A2, 4cases;A3, 5 cases)and nine were C type(C1, cases;C2, 4cases; C3, 3 cases). But B type was none.
CONCLUSIONS
: This study demonstrate that the operation with anatomical bone plate is not only simple and user's friendly technique but also widely appleicable method to treat A and C types of the distal femoral fractures.
