dc.description.abstract | Our aim was to determine the clinical effectiveness and safety of Ilizarov external fixation for the acute treatment of severely comminuted extra-articular and intercondylar fractures of the distal femur. A total of 14 consecutive patients with complex fractures was treated. There were three type-A3, two type-C2 and nine type-C3 fractures according to the AO/ASIF system. The mean follow-up was 14 months. Most fractures (13) united primarily at a mean of 16 weeks. One patient with a type-IIIA open fracture had infection and nonunion. The mean range of flexion of the knee at the final follow-up was 105 degrees (35 to 130). We conclude that, in the treatment of comminuted fractures of the distal femur, the Ilizarov fixator is safe and effective in providing stability and allowing early rehabilitation. | en_US |
