Cement augmentation of an angular stable plate osteosynthesis for supracondylar femoral fractures - biomechanical investigation of a new fixation device

摘要

Clinical case of a 93-year-old woman with highly osteoporotic bone structure and the presence of a supracondylar distal femoral fracture ( ). Fracture fixation was conducted with a plate osteosynthesis and cement augmentation of the condylar screws. As shown (red arrows), an uncontrolled cement outflow towards proximal occurred ( )
